The utility, reliability and efficiency of vendor, product and/or service ratings are improved by collecting verifiable transaction information along with consumer-supplied ratings indicating consumer satisfaction regarding the corresponding goods, services, and/or vendors. From this collected information, the method and system of the present invention generates a score or set or scores for the vendors, products, and/or services. The score or scores generated by the present invention is a transaction-price-weighted function of the consumer's transaction satisfaction, taking into account not only the consumer-supplied ratings but also providing greater reliability and accuracy by taking into account the amount of money each consumer spent on the goods or services. The score or scores are made available to potential consumers so that they can perform comparative analysis and thereby more easily obtain the best products and services from the best vendors.
