Beware of seller on Ebay "kickdownthecash"

This guy has a serious attitude problem and will drop negative feedback on you in a heartbeat. Bought a pair of skewers from him which were fine. Paid the same day auction ended, left Positive feedback for him > " Great seller, great Ebayer, super fast delivery. Bit high on shipping tho.", and the jerk leaves negative feedback on me because I dared to mention his high shipping charges, which I paid anyhow! He has also done the same thing to other buyers who dared to mention anything less than glowing results about thier transaction with him. Maybe this is just a vent over a ahole tarnishing my good eBay name, or maybe it is a "buyer beware" for a real eBay ahole, I don’t know but I feel better. This is not a complaint about "kickdownthetrash" charging too much for shipping, I knew the costs going in a paid them; this is a warning and hopefully a boycott of a jerk of a seller who leaves unfair, unwarranted and unjustified feedback. I tried resolving it with the seller, no luck, and with ebay whose only interest is to protect their "power sellers", also beating my head against the wall. So I warn and call for a boycott of "kickdownthecash" for those so inclined to do so.

This seller "Lyn Mclean" did the exact same thing to me. I gave her positive feedback on an eBay transaction but mentioned the high shipping charge. She retaliated by issuing a NEGATIVE Feedback, tainting my otherwise 100% record. She then ignored requests to withdraw until I attempted mediation via Square Trade, she then became insulting in her e-mails.

eBay refused to remove the feedback because it failed to meet their policy qualifications, so I am now stuck with it. No big deal I have had 130 successful eBay transactions, I guess we have met a "Lemon Trader"... so beware..

The whole feedback situation often carries little value anyway because of the pressure to not give negative for fear of recieving it (MAD mutually assured destruction). Anyone that knows what they are doing will not get worried about a random bad feedback that the lemon trader gave you, but it still sucks.

I never provide feedback unless the other person does first. If they don't, I don't. I used to provide positive feedback and then not get anything, so I'd rather wait now and act in kind. If I miss some good feedback because they were waiting on me, it really doesn't matter because what I do have has been great so far.

Most of her shipping prices aren't bad, but then she throws a whopper out there. $10 for shipping for a fold-able tire that she has a "buy now" price of $10 for seems she thinks people are a little dumb

I had a guy, never send me any money, then send an email saying he sent it and I should mail the item right away, I then emailed him that I recieved nothing and that if he got the money to me within three days I would send the item...never heard back from him. A month or so later he gives me negative feedback "just because." What a jackass. I always give feedback. I had a bike shop send me a "pay now" email after I had already recieved the item and had a reciept, so I called and they changed it...and never left me good feedback.
