Feedback

Ebay's feedback is not fit for purpose.  Sellers cannot leave anything but a positive review.  Really????  Come on Ebay.  I am an intermittent private seller of my own stuff only and never had a problems.  However, there are a lot of sellers on here that need to know the bad dudes.  Also a lot of buyers that need to know the bad sellers.  Don't know what you guys do to get Ebay to have a fully functioning feeback system.  It's a joke.

We are all members here like yourself, but can try to explain why it's an eBay policy violation to leave a negative feedback for a buyer,  hence a buyer can only have 100% good feedback.

The leaving of negative feedback was banned many years ago,  because some sellers were abusing the feedback system.  For example,  some were holding back items until a buyer left good feedback for them.

eBay have excellent tools for dealing with non payers. Cases for unpaid items.  This gives the buyers a strike,  if they gain another they cannot buy from the majority of sellers on eBay for a full 12 months.  Gain more? eBay remove them permanently from their site.

 

Cases are very effective.

Even if a negative feedback was allowed,  most sellers sell items in a Buy it Now format,  so there would be not time to read any well meaning 'warning' feedbacks.    Far better to open those cases,  which will in little time remove a member for life from the site,  if they continue to buy and not pay.
