| How PowerSeller Feedback is calculated |
|
|
The 98% or better positive Feedback rating for PowerSeller programme eligibility is calculated differently to the site Feedback rating visible on the Seller Information and Member Profile pages. The Feedback percentage seen on the rest of the site is calculated based on Feedback only from unique users.
The PowerSeller
Feedback score is calculated based on total user Feedback to better reflect the fact that many PowerSellers have satisfied, repeat buyers. eBay calculates PowerSeller Feedback by taking the total number of positive Feedback ratings and dividing them by the total number of Feedback ratings (both positive and negative).
|
| How compliance with marketplace policies is calculated |
|
|
To comply, you must not breach the Shill Bidding policy. Additionally, breaches of any eBay policies may result in the loss of PowerSeller status. The following limits apply:
| · |
Bronze |
4 breaches in a 60-day period |

5 breaches in a 60-day period |
| · |
Platinum |
6 breaches in a 60-day period |
