You are right, but one cannot assume that all buyers are 100% reliable. =
Moreover sometimes negative feedbacks are just due to misunderstandings =

If you are giving money to someone, do you want them to be honest 97% =

or
100% of the time? Sure there is the occasional time when a buyer will =

not
be happy, but I consider 3% significant.
