No longer leaving feedback for stores on Ebay

Posted Mar-20-08 10:47:11 PDT Updated Mar-20-08 11:34:54 PDT
To the majority of great reliable feedback giving stores here on Ebay i appologise for this:

DUE TO MY REQUESTING FEEDBACK AFTER I HAVE PURCHASED FROM 'SOME' STORES HERE AND BEING IGNORED (which isn't helpping me to build on my good reputation) I WILL NO LONGER BE LEAVING FEEDBACK FOR STORES!

The only way i may reconsider this, is if feedback has been given first. I will leave a list on one of my blogs of which stores these happen to be, so others can carry on buying from you regardless or have second thoughts because your being ignorant,

sorry again to the great stores out there that do take a couple of seconds to past on their feedback.

wow, thanks guys for all your feedback from buyers and sellers too :) i learned mo0re in a few minutes than i have the entire time i been here lol
so, some of you wait till you have had feedback 1st, some are a bit touchy on this subject :) sowi lol
some of you have a great sense of humor ;)
some of you have been here in the early days, you must have seen and experienced alot, thanks so much for you comments..... heres what i reckon im gonna do

i will carry on leaving feedback ( for now mindyou ;) and after 90 days if you dont bloody give any back ill bug your inbox or summink, i dont know lol

i know, it's really annoying not to get feedback when you've paid straight away,

sorry...if you ever buy from me, i'm happy to leave feedback :-)

I NEVER LEAVE FEED BACK FIRST BUT AS SOON AS I RECIVE FROM BUYER THEN I LEAVE IT IN RETURN DON'T KNOW WHY ANY BUYER WOULD HOLD BACK THERE FEEDBACK?

feedback can be left 90 days after a sale is complete. If you ever get hit with a big chargeback on paypal...you might understand why some take their time - JMHO no offense

bengaltiger, then that will be very unfortunate for the good stores out there.


bettie noir: yes it has become very tiresome, thanks for your comments

feedback is voluntarily. I have alot of buyers I have left feedback for who never left me any as well as sellers I have left for and they have not reciprocated. I would never let that influence who I buy from, as long as they deliver what is stated and all goes well, I am happy.

and that will change to 60 from 90 days come the May changes.

I usually leave feedback once a week and some weeks I've got a lot to catch up with....so some buyers might think I'm not going to leave it. I used to do it every day but it got too time consuming. Maybe the others are doing it weekly too? Just a thought

bushellcollectibles: how do you feel when you look at the feedback you have received? good lets you know your doing ok and bad means there maybe something that needs your attention.

rearvu is exactly right. If you sold on this site you would understand why some sellers don't leave feedback right away or that some sellers leave it once or twice a month. As a seller, I leave feedback when it's left for me and so do many sellers so if you're not leaving any, you're not getting any.

I tend to leave feedback right when payment is received except for items I ship internationally as I want to make sure it has arrived safe and sound. As soon as I receive an e-mail from the int'l buyer or see they have left me feedback, I reciprocate in kind.

and if a problem arrives domestically, I have been fortunate in that the buyer will e-mail me and we work it out.

unfortunately, people have abused the system. you should have been here in the early days when you could leave feedback for anyone anytime without even buying from or selling to them! was like the Wild West, no order whatsoever!

kandjsmom04: im just a buyer, so usually i wait from two days to a week for the postal order to be received then i expext feedback on how well my communication and payment was/is

i have only been brave enough to buy from the UK ( my country) at the moment so i knonw how long the payments takes to arrive, then give a few days for busy times for stores or delays in post etc

by then i usually have the product and leave an open and honest feedback for the store/seller. i never leave anything nasty even if i ampeeved as its not helpful feedback.but just lately i havent been getting any feedback from stores.
Private sellers are fine as they seem keen to get feedback too.
