Vendor Reviews & Complaints

Sounds like a good idea. But not really a good way of attracting business. If these forums get a reputation of having (for lack of a better word) "difficult" consumers,

Sounds like a good idea. But not really a good way of attracting business. If these forums get a reputation of having (for lack of a better word) "difficult" consumers, it may chase away potential vendors.

Just a thought.

Consumers are gonna be "difficult" regardless of whether a system is in place or not.

There are plenty of forums who are able to keep a feedback system in place and still have plenty of vendors supporting the forum.

Again, why the emphasis on vendors? This forum is here for the community, i.e. 370z owners, right? The forum members are just as important as the vendors.

+1. A feedback rating system besides everyone's name would be great!

Communication Score: 2
Product Score: 9
Shipping Score: 7
Customer Service Score: 4
Overall Score: 5

Additional Comments: Wheels came out great and what I expected. However, lack of communication from vendor gave me a headache and left me in the dark on when my wheels are getting shipped.

Sound good?
I agree.

A rating system for both Venders and Buyers to make it fair.

I don't like this idea. The primary purpose of this site is a discussion forum, not a business entity such as eBay. The forum sponsors pay for advertising and community interaction.

If this was a business entity, such as ebay, then I may agree. But Vivid, Stillen, AAM, etc are not completing monetary transactions through this site. They may initiate business through here, and make contacts, but money does not change hands between Z owners and sponsors literally through the370z.com

That's true, but then you will just keep getting all these threads from people that are started just to complain about vendors. It will turn into a heated debate and eventually get cleaned/locked just like every other one has. I think this would be a good idea for both vendors and people, but I definitely see how it could be abused to either ruin a member/vendor's rating or to bump it up for no reason.
