Feedback

[2012happychap]

Hi,

I am just wondering why some sellers don't leave feedback for buyers until after the buyer has left feedback for them?

[2012happychap]

as you may have noted I only became aware that a seller could only provide positive feedback during this posting, however the feedback that was noted as being irrelevant was buyer feedback for the seller, not seller feedback for a buyer

I don't think leaving a public positive feedback comment for a buyer, thanking them for their purchase and noting my very quick post of their purchase does my sales reputation any harm -either with the buyer making the purchase or future buyers.

In addition, some of the most interesting and useful feedback I have ever seen is in buyer feedback.  It has assisted me to grow my BBL significantly.

Follow up comments in buyer feedback have also greatly assisted me in managing a few "item not received or as decribed" scammers.

IMO buyer feedback is not irrelevant.

and neither sentence have been previously been used, until you used them so you must be okay about that....and with reference to your other comment, yes you really don't get it do you ...lol

This whole thread is about a seller not leaving a buyer feedback isn't it,so all I said was that as a buyer I don't care if I receive feedback as long as I get my purchase,so the sellers feedback to me is not important as much as it is me leaving feedback for the seller.

As usual, misconstruing deliberately what I said. I believe I said, if you care to look, that buyer FEEDBACK is irrelevent, I even explained why a bit further down. Probably a bit before you started reading.

DG if you don't get it I am not sure I can explain it in a way that is "more meaningful" for you. 

BTW the feedback I leave for my buyers is as meaningful as they perceive it.  Leaving "tailored" feedback does not mean it will be for some or one or many, anymore meaningful.

I know it doesn't do you any harm for leaving a buyer a wonderful feedback as it gets you repeat business and i never said that you shouldn't,I said as a buyer I don't really care if I receive feedback or not.Happychap is the one that's so concerned about a seller not giving feedback immediately after he/she has paid.As a seller I give feedback asap but not immediately as sometimes I have others things to do rather than being by my computer 24/7 and might not realise that someone has paid me.

And davewil you asked the OP a question, based on a subjective assumption,  so I responded to note that part one of the statement/question was your opinion and not a fact.  Not sure how that is misconstruing your post.

"that buyer FEEDBACK is irrelevant" if you read that sentence as written it says that buyer feed back is irrelevant, as a buyer I take that to mean my feedback about a seller is irrelevant

secondly don't be condescending to me I read what you wrote the way that you wrote it, there was no need to deliberately misconstrue anything

Again, where did I suggest it would be more meaningful for the buyer? I didn't specify anyone in particular that it would be more meaningful for.

It was a pretty general comment, glad the way you intepreted it gave you some amusement, but it's a bit silly to  ascribe your interpretation to me and then laugh at it, cos it ain't me you're laughing at.
