I always got the impression TM never took sides.
Thankfully ive never really had to deal with anything major.
Once I did place a red face on a buyer after numerous emails and no contact, then once I placed the negative feedback, all of a sudden I hear from the buyer asking why i placed a red face and was all apologetic and in the end the trade went through, so some times it works with time wasters.
One other time I never heard back from the buyer and then I get a blue face despite me emailing them multiple times, despite me not even leaving any feedback.
TM have stood up for me in several trading situations that went bad. I had made sure to open a dispute claim first and explained the situation before responding to the sellers. In one case T M actually refunded me when the seller tried to weasel out by only part paying back. I try to avoid red faces, preferring to either not place fbk at all, or use a blue with difficult trades, but sometimes having TM to advise is better than going it alone.
I must say though, my recent trades have all been with sellers. Last challenging buyer I had was years ago...
