I used to feel exactly as you do. When I became a Seller, I always left feedback as soon as I received payment. However, I soon realized that I could only say, "thank you for your purchase and fast payment" and I found that some buyers were really great and deserved better, while others just ignored my great packing and fast postage, and never let me know a thing. I used to put in free gifts, and bent over backwards to please, but rarely got a "thank you" for anything. I always thank buyers for their purchase when I have received payment and let them know every little thing they need to know., but too many never acknowledge receiving their parcel, which is a bit of a worry when it is safe dropped, and there are too many horror stories of buyers claiming "not received" months later. Then there are the ones who say they are very happy with the item, promise to leave great feedback, and never do. Now I have one who opened a return request for an item because box was totally destroyed, but the item had not even been delivered. Then she cancels the request, after distressing me no end, and no contact, no apology, and no feedback for the very well packed item she would have received later. I guess she will wonder why she is now on my blocked list. I have no way of knowing if she was considering scamming me. As I take the trouble of thanking my buyers up front, letting them know when the item will be posted, uploading proof of their postage costs, packing everything very well at my expense, then I am a bit annoyed at no communication via feedback at the end, for which they get great and wonderful feedback if they deserve it. I put a little note in requesting to let me know via feedback that parcel is received safely, or contact if not, so I can sort it out. This only takes a moment, but too much trouble for a lot of them. I come from the old school of "please" and "thank you" and I just feel that society in general is becoming feral, and manners are a thing of the past with a lot of people.
