Nicely put.
I vote YEAH!

With technologies available, a webinar or skype conference call can do the trick.
That saves a lot of time and money travelling

That would be a nice and neat tweak indeed.

Nice addition. But the optional part I don't get. That's like saying
you can buy as a non-member, but in fact you can't buy at certain stores.
I think it would be more powerful if the featurew is implemented BL-wide and
not at the choice of a seller.

me too: YES

I now place my wanted number in the remarks field and manually edit them after
I receive an order. Many minutes spent already on that

What's wrong with the fun you can have when going through the top 10 sellers
manually in 10 different opened windows on your pc after the first search has
been done?

I can determine rather quickly what seller(s) are the best options for me (based
on fees, shipping costs, location, other stuff not on my wanted list but always
nice to acquire). Adding this feature into the storesoftware would spoil this....


It's not always necessary to automate manual processes. Keeps the mind working
too!

  Theoretically it seems a good idea but the buying privileges revoked concern
the possibility to place new orders and the retaliatory feedback concerns past
orders when the buyer had his privileges, then I am not agree.

Davide

I agree with you, and disagree with the proposed rule.

If the sale went through, feedback should be allowed.
Those who bother to read feedback usually can spot when the feedback is unjustified.

I am against some of the current removal of feedback that occurs.
I think feedback should be much harder to get removed than it now is.

To give feedback is easy, removal of feedback is easy.

Instead of focusing on a harder removal policy I think it is better to prevent
incorrect or unrelated feedback by removing the possibilty to do post them in
the first place. Prevention before correction. It also forces anyone to think
twice about the feedback the are about to give.
Anyone with revoked privileges did something that made them revoked. No need
to let the revokee do more damage to the community.

In that case I would agree that any feedback should be removed (or blocked),
because it would be for a bogus order -- an order placed after the buyer had
their buying privileges revoked.


Can that be done? Buying after your rights have been revoked?
Maybe the solution is worse than the action, I'm not sure.
Anyway, there must be some sort of 'holding area' where disputes are handled
and in the meantime the disputers that are 'banned' must be kept away from doing
more harm. That's my intention anyway. Banning it from all the options of BL
sounds harse indeed.... Mmm, tricky.

  So let's assume that a user is blocked for being under age. An unscrupulous seller
decides to take advantage of this and not ship the paid order from this now-banned
buyer. Why do you feel that it is fair to community for the buyer not to be able
post appropriate feedback?

I certainly wouldn't want to deal with such a seller and would appreciate the
feedback.

Revoked privileges = there's something not completely right; therefor it acts
as a warning to sellers and buyers.
During this warning-period it is up to the revoked one to 'prove' the opposite.
And it is safe for the community to have it's overall posting rights revoked
as well.
Shipping to an already revoked buyer sounds like an intended act of fraud?
In Dutch you are 'te kwader trouw', meaning you are aware of the wrongfulness
of the act but you still act like it.

Revoking privileges is an attempt to prevent repeating previous actions.
Seen as such, you still disagree?
