Hi, I noticed ebay forget to give me 2 new feedback points. Anyone else notice this? Buyers are not great at leaving feedback. What's up with that?

Sometimes the Feedback System lags and it can be up to a day or so for newly given f/b to show on your total score.

Sometimes big seller like Warp Drive Music and Rock'n roll Vintage are good for selling you goods but when it's time to leave feedback,forget it.

Why you so worry about feedback?
As a buyer I'm looking for seller with lower feedback.
I just stop buying from sellers with 1000+ if I don't know this seller. And in future if I will get 300, I will open new account. Buyers feel more protected with seller between 50-300 feedbacks. I can be wrong, but if I'm wrong you have to prove it!!!?:|

I strongly disagree with that statement! Why would you look for a seller with lower feedback?? I have over 1000 fb and I give my customers excellent customer service. I agree that some sellers with high feedback are slow to answer questions (if at all) and difficult to deal with.

vitali: i don't agree with that..that is a very generalized statement. bad sellers all start under 100 and good sellers all start out under 100. how do you know that buyers feel more protected with people between 50-300? i don't have any sources or numbers to prove either way, however, i would think that buyers would tend to feel more safe with more experienced sellers that have lots of positive feedback, i would anyways...

Wrong and a totally uneducated statement - some people need to think before they write.

With all the protection ebay and paypal have to offer to a buyer these days I do not see any problems with whatever amount your feedback might be. Yes I agree larger feedback sellers tend to be slow but remember they are doing much larger volumes of sales and need that extra time. Patience is the key. I buy on ebay as well and if I get a quick response I am usually surprised. I have to agree with nxtdriver as my feedback as well states how I do business with my customers.

I think more feedback has definitely helped with sales. Didn't start to sell much of anything over $20 until after we hit 100 feedback. Then sales of higher priced items started selling MUCH better.

Thanks for respond to: nxtdriver, firedept10 and power_batteries.🙂
After you respond I start to change my opinion about “hi” feedback sellers. I wish in future I could buy from you something what I’m looking for!
To: Kat.
I think you are wrong with your opinion (bad sellers all start under 100 and good sellers all start out under 100.)
You can meet bad sellers with any feedback. I can have feedback more than 1000+ in a week if I start to buy items on E-bay for $0.01. What do you think about sellers who is offer for sale similar product or seller who offer on E-bay from DVD ”The Rock” to the Russian submarine? Who will you trust more?:|

sorry vitali, that one went right over my head...my english reading is getting worse...
the point is, assuming all sellers with a score of 50-300 are "good" sellers is ridiculous and reflects thinking of someone with very little experience...there's no way you can tell...making an educated guess that a seller with feedback of over 1000 with a few negetives is a safe bet that they're 'good'...
..so does that mean as soon as a 'good' seller hits 301, they can no longer be trusted?
nonsense...
come on vitali...you're smarter than that...aren't you..?:-)

I'm personally convinced that the ratio between unique feedback and total feedback is more important - if a seller has a lot of repeat business he/she must be doing something right! I know of some very good sellers with 3 or 4,000 uniques and over 10,000 total. That, to me, is indicative of a seller who is concerned with customer service!

I think that the total feedback does help but you have to compare sellers of same types when comparing feedback. (e.g. Someone selling collectibles might easily sell one person a half-dozen different items whereas when I sell someone an item I expect it to last for 1.5-3 years - and few people need more than one of them at a time. Even when I get some customers coming back for more [for other family members], they sometimes use a different ID to boost their feedback for that ID.) Just saying that you should compare apples to apples.
