What other websites have seller/producer rating similar to 'Power Sellers' on ebay? Where can I find Info?

Question

I am looking for a symbol status that is given to sellers or producers of items that give them a certain level of prestige or status as with 'power sellers' on ebay. How does it work? what are the requirements? would customers rather buy from these sellers? etc. Where can I find info?

Answer 1

I've been an eBay "Power Seller" for nine years. Despite all the hoopla that eBay puts out trying to inflate the importance of the Power Seller rating, I haven't seen any evidence that it means anything to my business on eBay. I've never known any customer to choose my products simply because I was a Power Seller. Frankly, I think my very competitive pricing and 5000+ favorable feedback rating means more to my customers than some phony rating system.

I know of no other auction site that follows this same strategy.
