If you are a Powerseller you'd best read this...

If you don't keep all your DSR's above 4.5 you MAY get kicked off the powerseller program!

This at the moment only applies to .com but no doubt will be introduced to .com.au eventually.

Quote:
This icon next to a member's user ID means that the seller meets the criteria for being a PowerSeller - consistent sales volume, 98% total positive Feedback, eBay marketplace policy compliance, an account in good financial standing, and beginning in July 2008, detailed seller rating (DSRs) of 4.5 or higher in all four DSRs - item as described, communication, shipping time, and shipping and handling charges. If a seller no longer complies with any one of the above requirements, they are removed from the program.

I think it's a good idea to be honest. It gives a meaning to 'Powerseller'. Currently as you say being a Powerseller means nothing, but it will have huge benifits after the changes.

You don't get much for being a Powerseller anyway.

But then again, I did get a hamper the other day and also use the phone support once in a while.

To stay above 4.5 stars for all categories is easilly achievable though.
Most good powersellers would average about 4.8 stars.

Spider, What level of powerseller is required to get an ebay hamper, first I have heard of it. Thanks Dave

Hi Dave,

Gold or above as far as I know.
Still didn't get my promised picnic set which many others have got.

But these are small rewards for close to $40k in fees paid per annum.

Not much of an award for 40K in fee's, Considering it would cost ebay next to nothing.
