Is my top rated seller status at risk?

[jenupy2j]

My rating for dispatch time under top rated seller is 0.57% and top rated requirement is 0.50%. Currently I am a top rated seller.

Does this mean that coming 20th, I'll loose my top rated seller status?

Maybe. If you have more than 600 transactions, they use your ratings from the last three months, otherwise, the last twelve.

Since that is a rolling period, it is possible that some of those low DSR's will fall off when eBay makes their calculations.

If not, however, then YES, you lose your TRS status until the number of low DSR's is under .50% again.

Chances they will limit your selling activity then next month bar you from selling altogether, they will still let you buy stuff though..

Who Told you all of that Bullsh^t!!!

Who the F%ck are you to come over here and Scare another user into thinking that they are going to lose their selling privileges on their account?

@OP,,,,You will be Ok, If that is your ONLY issue, you will most likely lose your Top Rated Status, if you do not have enough completed Transactions as Jeff above correctly Pointed out,,Just run a Tight Ship, and you will get your Top Rated Status Back

And as for you bidboddie,,,Unless you Know what you are talking about,,,do EVERYONE a favor, and keep you posts to yourself,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Because I've watched that bs happen many many times to many many sellers. Heck nearly all of ebays early top rated sellers are banned including the first ever top rated seller. Being top rated doesn't protect you from ebay harrowing, no way at all. Those who forget there history are doomed to repeat it.

I have to say I agree with Slapped on this point. Could losing TRS bring some scrutiny to your account? Yes, it is possible. But this is not the same thing as your account falling to "below standard". You are STILL a good seller in eBay's eyes, you simply lost TRS status, which only a minority of sellers have.

If your account draws scrutiny and there are other issues, then YES, you could lose the account. Bigboddie is correct in the sense that anyone CAN lose an account at any time. And you could be a TRS and a Titanium Powerseller with a million positive feedbacks and still lose an account. Of course it happens. That is why we spread our risk over several accounts, to stabilize our business.

At the end of the day, I wouldn't operate under the theory that the account is lost. Try to do whatever it takes to bring the account back up to TRS status.

Thank you very much!

All these folx trying to gain TRS without knowing that status details in and out...not good

[golden_monkey]

I don't think you can KEEP TRS for very long unless you are free shipping 100%

i've been on top for a few months..........then not, im not worrying about it anymore my scores are high but i'll never get a 5.00000000000000000 on shipping costs.

You may loose your TSR, but your selling privileges will be fine. Would only become an issue if it were to increase a lot more and not improve over a long period of time.
