Man sued for neutral feedback on eBay!

http://www.king5.com/localnews/consumer/stories/NW_042308GJB_get_jesse_ebay_lawsuit_SW.91a63b84.html

Part of the article:

Steve Shellhorn was sued for $10,000 by an eBay seller who sold him some coins.

Shellhorn bought some Morgan silver dollars from a man in North Carolina. The price was fair, but Shellhorn says the coins were packed poorly.

"The coins were hanging out of the envelope, loose, with no packing whatsoever around them," he said.

The seller wanted feedback. Shellhorn couldn't honestly say the deal was good or bad so he took the middle ground.

"This is neutral feedback, not even negative feedback, but neutral. He sued me for $10,000," he said.



The judge in Buncombe County, North Carolina might not agree with that assessment, but he recently tossed out the suit.

It cost Shellhorn $500 to hire an attorney.
