Have you ever heard of the law of diminishing return? You'd think it had everything to do with an Ebay vendor that has resorted to sueing a dissatisfied buyer that left bad feedback using Ebay's feedback system.
Imagine what kind of precident this will set. If this buyer backs down from the seller, everyone will sue everybody. At least all they have to do is threaten to sue, or send that first nasty letter on an attorney's letterhead. Soon after no one will dare post negative feedback on Ebay.
This case needs to be tossed and fast or it will undermine every feedback system on the Internet. Mark these words.
As for the seller, he claims he lost business with his 98 percent rating. He claims he may go out of business if he doesn't sue because the buyer won't remove his negative feedback.
Guess what pal. You've now brought more attention on your bad business practices than you ever imagined. Your plan has officially backfired. If you have buyers now, they live under a rock.
Finally there is matter of money. No attorney is working this case on contingency so you must be reaching into your pauper pockets. Right. At least everyone has the peace of mind know you have to spend a lot of money on this case. I imagine much more than the poor guy you are attacking. I nominate you for the top ten dumbasses of 2008.
