I know many sellers who say in their auction that they can refuse buyers who have bad ratings.

This seams like it is going to lead to many people not going through with an auction they won. Then the sellers will be trying to get their money back from ebay. Ebay charges you fee for the listing and then again for the completed auction.



EX: I see an item on ebay I want, so I bid on three auctions that each have the same item. I then win all three auctions and then only pay for the lowest auction. The sellers can not leave me negative feedback and if ebay asks I will claim to have paid the other sellers with a money order. This is a win - win for both me for getting the lowest bid, and ebay for being able to charge 3 different sellers. The only loser will be the guy trying to sell his item and getting stiffed by the buyers and then trying to have ebay collect their fees on an item that never actually sold.
