A bricklink user may be an A + buyer but a mediocre seller. I’m dealing with
a seller who’s had bad reviews, ranging from water and crush damage to an order
that was cancelled without explanation. But this user has stellar buyer reviews
that reflect his overall rating.

If there’s not already, there should be a way to filter between these two types
of reviews so that users aren’t stuck with a bad seller who’s being advertised
so positively from their reviews as a buyer.

Just to clarify, I’m having my own negative experience with this user myself.
I paid for a $120 set four days ago, messaged him the day after I paid since
there was no response. He replied the next day saying he’d ship today, which
he hasn’t. For such an expensive set, I’d rather not have to wait five days after
making a payment to see it ship. Kind of upsetting.

To the far right of each FB comment it states whether he was a buyer or seller
and at the immediate R of his ID card it breaks down the totals for buying and
selling.

Did you read his store terms? Many people only go to the PO once a week. Maybe
he had trouble finding adequate packaging for the set. Perhaps he just forgot
to set the status to shipped. There are just too many things that might come
in to play here. For me personally, 4 days is not a big deal. If you are that
concerned keep the lines of communication open and be polite. I'm sure it
will work out in due time.

Thanks for your feedback, I’m sure your right. And thanks for pointing that out
on the review page.

I guess I’ve been spoiled by sellers who ship right away.

Morning

There is already a way to do this. Click on the members feedback number which
takes you to his overall feedback page. Go to the bottom of the page and you
will see a comment which shows Seller or Buyer and click on either one - that
then shows the most recent feedback as seller or buyer - whichever you have chosen.

Not all that obvious but it works and is certainly a way to do what you have
asked.

Hope that helps and good luck with your order.

BTW - not everyone ships same day.

On the shops feedback-page, only his (recent, last 6 months) seller feedback
is shown.
