Reputation — eBay Feedback: Overview

Every eBay user has a Feedback Profile made up of comments from other eBay users - an official "reputation."

Next to any eBay member's User ID, there is a Feedback Rating number in parentheses ( ). For example: Skippy (125) means that this member's User ID is Skippy and they have received positive feedback comments from at least 125 other eBay members.

How you earn feedback points:
The feedback rating system is easy. You receive:

  • +1 point for each positive comment
  • 0 points for each neutral comment
  • -1 point for each negative comment
  • A star icon is awarded for 10 or more feedback points.

The following help pages provide important information about how feedback affects every eBay member's most important commodity: their reputation.

You can also get information on requesting a member's User ID.
