Feedback policy doesn't add up

[loujam57]

I can't say that I'm that impressed with Ebay's Feedback system.

Ebay say you earn a reputation on your actions and how well you treat others. 

I have always left feedback whether I buy or sell. However over the past year I am surprised at the amount of Ebayers who have bought items yet never leave Feedback, even when they have collected items.

In reality the Feedback profile is flawed. I would suggest that if a buyer doesn't leave feedback Ebay should automatically deduct from the buyer and increase the seller profile. It's no different from saying 'please' and 'thank you'.

Time to have a re-think.

Time to have a rethink?

Perhaps...................remove leaving feedback completely, how about that?

Leaving feedback is voluntary for both buyers and sellers.

As it is voluntary please respect everyone's choice as to whether they leave it and when they choose to leave it.

If a buyer chooses not to leave any feedback it could be because they weren't completely happy with the purchase but not unhappy enough to leave negative feedback.
