Hello All

I have a image of a rating, but do not understand it. There are five stars, but then the number 3. Perhaps a rating of 3 out of a potential of 5 stars.

Thanks

Hi Darryl,

The "Rating" is the number of members who have given a rating, and stars, to you for a purchase they made from you.

The "Avg. Rating" is the ratings, and stars, that you give to others when buying an item from them.  Why is says "Avg." is anyone's guess.

Hope this helps...

James*

Ave ratings..... if someone has only given 5 star ratings then the Average would be 5.....if they have given out 4 ratings for 5 stars and 1 for 2 stars then the Ave ratings would be less than 5....

Thanks Greg!  That makes sense as I never thought about it that way.

Do you know why I can't leave ratings anymore to members I am buying or selling from?
