ebay rating is a function of transparency of information (condition,
return policy, shipping cost, etc) and efficient execution.  it's
not an indicator of general price level, since
buyers are free to bid whatever they want for an object, or to not
enter into the transaction at all.

in other words, i don't think it is legitimate for a buyer to
give a seller a negative rating because the price was too high, or
indeed to complain in general that the seller "charged too much".

No intention to give the seller any rating at all. At this point there are no bids and I will be interested in seeing what kind of bids he gets. Also no complaint that he "charged too much". He will not be charging me too much since I won't be a bidder or buyer on this item. If you look at his store, all items are set with very high starting bids.

As I said in my original post, he must be having success at these price levels.
