if Leah agrees to remove it then it can be removed but really both parties must agree to keep it fair, otherwise the freedom to vote as you choose is taken away and there is really no point in having the polls to begin with.

I'm going to go out on a limb a bit and say that I would be a wee bit suspicious of a vendor that doesn't have some negative feedback...you can't please every one all of the time

Good points actually, it would just be nice to be able to somehow put a link from the feedback page to the thread so someone can decide for themselves.

It really sucks that I paid $275 to have someone leave negative feedback, especially when I tried so hard to make right what was obviously an error on the couriers part among other situations beyond my control.

I guess you're right, just disappointing to see.



Can we start a customer poll?

Edit: I have asked the party to re-consider the feedback. We will see what happens and how she decides to approach this.

I think what people need to understand is that that feedback poll is very important to me, that poll gives me the pride and energy to continue to do what I do, it makes me feel like all of the hours and time away from my family is paying off. This is very much like a second full time job. I have worked in a business for ten years that proves time and time again how important positive customer feedback and general reputation is.

Well, in this situation, the fault really lies with the shipping company.. perhaps we should add fedex, UPS, Westjet etc etc to the vendor ratings?

Feed back is there so others can see how "others" experience was with you.

I think it should stick.

If your allowed to have your ratings fudged because you think you were right.... then whats the point of having the system in place... as mentioned, the purpose of it is so people who have had a good, great, bad or horrible experience with you can show that. they dont need details for the experience. and IF someone questions, they will PM that person im sure.. I did!

Once your done with crying about it. You will realise that you will not be able to please everybody.

The fact on how you berrated Leah, when all she did was make a simple post, without mentioning you, and all you're do is shining the spotlight on yourself.

I think if you are this worried about 1 negative comment, then you should be focusing your attention towards the way you handle a situation... Privately!!!!

just my 2 cents
