Rating of sellers on this site?

First, no complaints--I really like what I see on this site, as other users are always the best source for reliable information.

However, I sort of thought it would be a great place to see ratings on sellers, as I buy a great deal of hardware online. I operate a small, one-man business [that's as small as you can get] specializing in business offices here in town. I design and build computers and networks for specific applications.
Ergo: having a place to see ratings about online sellers is a terrific idea, and I have many experiences to offer. But all I can find is a search engine, where I typed in the names of some really big time sellers from pricewatch.com. No hits.

So, I guess this is more like an individual resellers site?

I guess my real question is: does the site have any particular place for information on online companies?

Great site, I just have to understand the concept to take advantage of it.

daveleau: As you probably know, ResellerRatings uses the same forum as TechIMO, so there may be some confusion here.

I believe that robertpr007 is referring to ResellerRatings.com.

robertpr007: The reason you can't find PriceWatch on ResellerRatings is because PriceWatch doesn't sell anything. ResellerRatings.com is a collection of online retailers, evaluated by their customers. You can find the list of over 2,000 companies, here, and search:

http://www.resellerratings.com/rlist-s1.html

What PriceWatch does, and what ResellerRatings will soon add, is give you the ability to search product prices at different retailers.

Yes, I know what you are saying about not being able to find some of the big guys on PW here. There is the "Add a Reseller" in which you can submit the names and locations of resellers that you can not find here. I spent a good chunk of friday submitting new businesses to this site via that method. Unfortunately, if they are not yet here, that means there will be limited feedback on them when they are added, as only new submissions will be in their ratings.

But what you also may need to do is type in different vartiations of the name, as the search may not pick up on different spellings, abreviations, and what not. When searching, try different forms of the Name (like maybe no space, or add a space or hyphen) or even type in the actual domain name. Some of the vendors on PW are straight frauds, switching their names around trying to fool people as they have successfully obtained a horrible reputation. I have asked PW several times to either develop a rating system, or at least provide a link to a rating system such as ResellerRatings.com, but to no avail as they seem uninterested in protecting their customers. [a bit harsh, but MANY of their vendors have serious problems, and their unwillingness to do something is disturbing]
