10,000

Never thought I'd see that number let me tells ya!!!

All those years ago I would've laughed if anyone told me where I'd be today.

Many ups and downs but through and through eBay has treated me well....well enough that is......

A hearty congratulation!  It takes a lot of work to get there.

I'm working on 6000 but very few seem to leave feedback anymore and it is taking forever to get those last few.

Congrats on your 'shooting star'!  We know how much effort and diligence goes into getting there -- a real accomplishment.  

Those who think the FB score doesn't matter at all are kidding themselves I think.  Those numbers are meaningful milestones that you don't get by coasting along.  And we all know it's getting harder to get FB at all these days. 

I'll be deliriously happy just to reach one thousand.  

Enjoy your day!

Go back 25 years.....  and 

Have someone tell you there will be an eBay ....

Where you will sell, with an opportunity to sell worldwide.

or 

Back to the 1950's  and 

Have someone tell you about wide screen televisions.....  60 inches and more.....  and in color.....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The higher the feedback number  the better the reputation....

Feedback number does make a BIG difference in selling

I do get the impression that sometimes they pay a bit more just because of that feedback number.....

The "character" of that feedback also contributes to a seller's reputation

Congratulations Steve! You look good in your new star. I will never make 10,000. I am struggling to 5. Nan and I COMBINED are only 9400 and we have been doing this for over 25 years combined.

Be proud. You have earned the right.

Congratulations, a nice milestone!

Congratulations. 

I know how difficult it is to reach that first Shooting Star.

On to the next one! (25,000)

Woo Hoo! Congrats!

[007steveb16]

Thanks a bunch everyone!

As for shooting for 25,000...just don't tell my wife!!

NICE work there. I don't know how all you people manage these high numbers, do you sleep-work? Are you machines?? The closest Ill ever get to a shooting star is about 100 miles above the Earth's surface. 😉
