I'm not sure if I missed a previous mail about this topic, but I want
to share my thoughts about this one.  I think it is a good idea to have
some sort of advise & warning system but one needs to be careful.

I have sold on eBay, and at times it may take me 48 hours to get back to
people if my work takes me abroad.  In one instance I could not respond
at all because my ISP & telephone service provider went offline for a
week while doing major works on the exchange. In such instances you
would be 'blacklisted' without there being a reason for it.

Would it be better to maybe make a place were people can ask experts
for advise instead of a list of sellers who do not reply to emails?
Something like a forum or so, where people can post these sort of
questions?

Contacting eBay about this would be useless as they don't really seem
to care.  (I ran across a seller who sold some gruesome murder pictures
but eBay did not intervene even if this is against their selling policy).
