feedback

[summer.raine]

I am so sick and tired of constantly being told to supply feedback for items well before they have arrived.

I ALWAYS leave feedback for items within 24 hours of delivery.

I presume you mean the eBay reminders 

eBay

Please provide Feedback for your eBay items 

and the big bold

There are items awaiting your Feedback

They are annoying but I just ignore them as a buyer ....and  sellers hope that inexperienced  buyers won't think  they come from a seller who's asking for feedback

Not something other members have any control over

It is 100% an eBay thing, which you've been around (on eBay) long enough to know

I ignore them like I do any spam

but I just ignore them as a buyer

As do most. I would be lucky to get feedback for 20% of sales. It's not the internet thing these days.

As the  OP said, much of the time the annoying  feedback reminders from eBay are sent before the item's even been received .

"It's not the internet thing these days"

I HATE eBay automated feedback in Australia for sellers  with under 10 feedback as I've seen it given to scammers, dropshippers (from AliExpress) and sellers of counterfeit items.

A buyer can override  automated feedback with their own feedback but does anyone know what shows on the Purchase History / Feedback page to indicate  this ?

I wonder if  we'll get this here for ALL sellers:

Starting at the end of April, UK sellers will automatically receive positive feedback for orders that use a tracked service, arrive on time, and have no buyer issues.

Automated positive feedback will be added to your feedback profile 7 days after tracking confirms successful delivery, provided the following criteria are met:

• Tracking shows the item was delivered on time
• The buyer hasn’t left feedback yet
• The buyer hasn’t reported an issue with their order

This feedback will remain unless the buyer reports a negative experience, such as opening a return request, reporting non-receipt, or cancelling the order. Any positive or negative feedback subsequently left by the buyer will replace the automated positive feedback.
