How do I view the seller’s reputation?

Just under the seller’s name, you can see heart(s)/diamond(s)/crown(s) which represent how many points the seller has (seller gets 1 point for each positive rating, and -1 for each negative rating). Next to that, you can see the shop’s “positive rating” (好评率) which is rated by the buyers who have bought from this seller. The best performance is 好评率:100%.

Red heart(s): 4 – 250 points

Blue diamond(s): 251 – 10000 points

Blue crown(s):10001 – 500000 points

Golden crown(s): more than 500000 points

Note:

Every positive rating gives the seller 1 point.

Every negative rating takes away 1 point.

Why goods stock information sometimes wrong?

This is because the information about stock on Taobao webpage is not always true.
Listing on Taobao is totally free, and most sellers are individuals, the webpage is not always updated in time. It’s not the same as Ebay. Ebay will charge sellers money, but taobao will not. This is the reason why sometimes you’ll get feedback that the goods are out of stock although the webpage shows they are available.
