For the Buyer Protection Performance standards:

When the standard for number of buyer opened cases starts in September, for those micro sellers that are evaluated on annual numbers (because they have under 400 transactions a quarter), will the first evaluation be a period of 1 year looking back (like Sept 2009 to Aug 2010) OR will it be the 'beginning of data collection' (and by Aug 2010 to Aug 2010 and the Oct one be Aug 2010 to Sept 2010 and so on until a whole year)?

Hi ddiachun,

The first evaluation for members under the 12-month lookback period will be in September 2010 for cases received for transactions that occurred between September 1, 2009 and August 31, 2010.

Thanks,

Mikka

Thanks for the specific information, matches what I assumed. Important to me since I have 3 open claims in my stats right now.

I have a follow up question on the Buyer Protection standards.

I had a buyer who filed a PayPal dispute saying they did not receive an item. I had DC and signature confirmation and contacted PayPal. PayPal told me that they could see everything in the record and that I should escalate it to a Claim and they would close in my favor. I did so. Now this shows as a hit against my Open Claims stats.

Question #1: will there be a new procedure so that we don't have to Escalate to Claim to get Disputes closed?
Question #2: how do I remove this Open ding since it was not opened by a Buyer but by me as instructed by Paypal?

(I've heard that there is a way to report buyers for Claims on transactions -- but this does not seem like the right way to go as it is not the buyer's fault the Dispute was made a Claim)
