I disagree strongly!!!

99.2 is better than 99 out of 100 satisfied.

What if you had made 40-50 trouble-free sales and them you meet up with an ass-hole who gives you a bum rating. Or someone who demands NOS when you specified good condition!

Sometimes called 'rating blackmail'

That, unfortunately is why many reputable sellers will not give feedback to buyer before item is delivered and customer is "satisfied"
