Question Feedback in Selling on eBay

Feedback

I have sent two requests to a buyer to leave me feedback and have had no response.

As I have already left feedback for the buyer can it be withdrawn?

If you get it, what are you planning to do with it? It isn't convertible into currency.

Anecdotally, only about 30% of buyers leave feedback That's certainly my experience. In fact, my last 4 sales on this account have not resulted in feedback. That's 0%. As Lyndal said, it's voluntary.

I leave feedback when I've posted. Buyer feedback can only be positive, so it is essentially useless. It has been known to happen that a seller badgering a buyer for feedback gets what they ask for, in red. There is at least one buyer who leaves negative if the seller doesn't give them feedback.

Are you selling for money or dots on a screen?

Don't badger the buyer to leave feedback. I leave feedback when I post items, and insert a polite note requesting feedback or to be contacted first if there are problems, then I do not ask again. Most of my buyers have left feedback lately. For the ones that haven't, I don't stress about it. It is a common courtesy that some think not necessary.
