To counteract that backlash, they just thought adding more barriers or obstacles to get the discount. More would not be able to meet the long list of rules to get it.
After a few more rule changes and dumb obstacles the number of TSR's with 20% discount will drop in steps and be more gradual. That will save them millions per quarter.
That is my theory. also some analyst on the Fox Business Channel said pretty much the same thing about 3 weeks ago. Just his opinion though too so you never know. | What you're saying makes sense.
But I don't see how this is an obstacle.
Before the new policy, buyers were able to rate us anyway.
Now, buyers are able to rate us only if.
They have less chances to rate us now.
It is an obstacle only if they now are only able to rate us 1-4*, as someone said.
But someone said this is not true.
So the only thing that is significant to getting positive DSR now is whether they can rate us 1-5* or only have options 1-4*.
