That Negative eBay Comment Could Get You Sued

(erikg)

A Florida man is being sued for $15,000 for leaving a negative comment on a transaction to buy a $44 clock, breaking his perfect rating, NBC 2 of Florida reports:

Steadman says the clock arrived in three pieces of varying models that didn’t fit and couldn’t stamp a card, as advertised.

He returned it and got a refund through PayPal, but wanted to warn others.

On Miller’s profile he wrote, “Bad seller; he has the ethics of a used car salesman.”

Do you think the suit has any merit? And will this news change the way you rate transactions on eBay?
