Fine-Tuned Feedback Finder

When you take a look at a prospective eBay trading partner's feedback, and want to view any or all negatives received, it can be a long and tedious process to scroll through many (perhaps hundreds or thousands) of feedbacks to see what the problems &/or comments were when someone left negative or neutral feedback. An easy way to solve this problem is though the website Toolhaus.

Here you can just pop in a user name, and receive a result list of ONLY negative and neutral feedback received.

Toolhaus offers and entire suite of tools related to eBay feedback. Most interesting are the soon to be launched tools to deal with the seismic changes coming to eBay's feedback system next month. While sellers will no longer be allowed to leave negative feedback for buyers, it is posited that sellers will leave text such as "neg" or "negative" in the comment field for the mandatory positive only feedback. Toolhaus has designed a tool to detect such "false positives" as well.

This site is very useful, and plans to continue to evolve to meet the needs of the eBay community. A keeper!

About Me

I am a recovering lawyer, who has been working as a research librarian for the past 15 years, in both a private law firm, and law school setting. I have recently quit my day job to pursue my interests in junking for fortune & glory full time. I am equal parts informationist, and treasure hunter. I have been going to thrift shops and estate sales my ENTIRE life. My two interests are quite complimentary. I am an excellent "finder", whether it is digging for information in databases or the net, or searching for buried treasure in a thrift shop or attic. I hope to build this space into a meeting place for fellow thrift shop aficionados who are looking for a treasure map of sorts when traveling through the US.
