With the changes eBay recently announced to feedback, detailed seller ratings (DSRs), and PowerSeller requirements, the focus is now on making sure that sellers give buyers a better experience. Sellers giving buyers a poor experience will find their items disadvantaged in search results as well as finding it harder to achieve PowerSeller status.
