Title: Vendor percentile ranking - when does it update?
Post by: farmer1 on September 02, 2012, 11:31 pm
I have been a vendor here for only 21 days and 30 completed transactions. When does my percentile ranking change/update? What factors make up a ranking and what weight does each carry?

I would also like to know this answer.  A guess would be once a certain number of sales is accomplished.

It only ever updates when SR gets back from the beach having chased all the hot gals he can handle and comes
down from the single malt scotch hangover. Two aspirin and a vitamin c and he finally will
get to it after he does all the other shit that comes first!!!  :P

Take it for all you can!  Don't try to make a big deal about it because it puts you up ahead of all the vendors that worked their butts off to get to the top %, & you get first billing for just starting out!  Just check out seller rank under cannabis, domestic, & don't complain!

Pirate Roberts has explained this. You have to search for yourself.
A deal gone bad will set you back a few % even though you would have 300 or more flawless transactions.
Because the last deals count for more %
If you have 300 transactions and every transaction would count for the same percentage, you would have to have more then 9 transactions that went bad to come at a rate of 99% or a less percentage.

You will find it in combination with the right words.
Otherwise you have to check all the messages from the pirate.
A little over 400 posts.

The issue is currently with the new updated site, all the new vendors with what looks to be less than a month under their belt, get listed at 0%, which puts them on the top of the first page for best sellers, it doesn't start them at the 100% and start to work the % down at least in the first month or so apparently.  It's a glitch that DPR knows about,  & is on the long list to correct.  But it is a bit misleading when the first 6 - 10 vendors listed are actually in the lowest percentile, & once you get past them all of the sudden you have the highest rated vendors . . .
