Do you find the Discogs a toxic platform?
Like it is full of shady sellers / outright scammers who like posting the wrong products to their customers and refusing to refund? I have often seen victims posting in their forum and the Discogs' subreddit which simply got downvoted to oblivion and ganged up on by victim-blamers, most of whom are sellers earning lots of money themselves, which is absolutely toxic and ridiculous. Many Discogs sellers simply don't like the concept of consumer rights but feel entitled to scam their customers, do they?
The Discogs rule that almost doesn't allow buyers to leave negative feedback on sellers despite having a bad experience, e.g. scammed, without "first finding a solution" is absolutely ridiculous in that it shows no respect for consumer rights or freedom of speech at all. If sellers decide to go public and sell on such a global platform, they are subject to scrutiny and none of them is immune to criticism. Restricting negative feedback from buyers simply encourages scams and an extremely toxic trading environment.Buyers who comment negatively often risk the wrath of sellers and retaliatory negative feedback, which lowers their buyer ratings. Given that Discogs allows sellers to set minimum buyer ratings, it is simply bullying buyers into silence when they get ripped off.I really can't agree with this but believe this is a very serious issue that must be addressed by Discogs.
