So why even have reviews in the first place. I think if there is a problem, the buyer should contact Ebay privately, and then Ebay can work out the issues between the buyer and seller, and keep things between the two parties.

Great idea ... except that eBay doesn't want to do squat, except collect their fees. eBay doesn't want to do any actual work ...

Sounds like a business opportunity for their competition.
