😮 You're actually considering phoning them to ask for feedback???? That's a bit much. I leave feedback when I ship items. For me it's part of my checks and balances system. I used to send out the odd personal, polite feedback request after a couple of months but I'd never in a million years consider calling a buyer about feedback. I haven't even done the emails in a couple of years. But calling someone?? yikes! And even when I have sent out the emails it was done once and then I figure oh well and move on.
The only times I've called a buyer is when there was a problem, misunderstanding or an issue that I felt would be better suited to verbal communication rather than an email. Hearing someone's tone of voice is much better than a sometimes misinterpreted email. I find people don't always have a good grasp of the english language and sometimes take things in ways other than which they were intended.
I think you'll find you won't like the response you get to a phone call inquiring about their purchase satisfaction along with a feedback reminder. But go ahead and try it and let us know how it goes.

Where's the problem?
Call a buyer to beg for feedback? You've got to be kidding!

Be careful what you ask for. If a seller EVER phoned me to ask for feedback, I would be very quick to leave at least a neutral or maybe even a negative.
Feedback is OPTIONAL. Yes, it serves a useful purpose to a certain extent but it certainly isn't mandatory. The only time feedback is important is perhaps when you are new to E-bay and are trying to build up your credibility or if you are a poor seller (or buyer) and others wish to leave negative for the benifit of future business partners.
There comes a point where the numbers don't mean much anymore.
