How our rating system works
The rating system at Drilling Equipment Auction gives potential Buyers an indicator on the Seller's quality of goods as well as his delivery reliability. This indicator is generated by the results of successfully ended auctions. After each successfully ended auction the Buyer gets the possibility to write a rating for the Seller. The rating consists of a judgement (positive, neutral or negative) for both the item and the delivery, whereas the item quality ist valued higher in a overall rating of the Seller. A Neutral rating will be listed as a positive sale, but not calculated into the symbolic view. Everytime a Seller sells an item and receives a further rating, this is added to his total rating score. The table below illustrates the how the rating is displayed:
