Feedback Question

[dan_and_ally]

I  know feedback has been posted about before and how other people have said that as a buyer they don't leave feedback. But i am kind of annoyed, I always give all of my buyers feedback as i personally find it a nice thing to do. But since i've started selling on here, almost all of the people (except 1) haven't left me feedback. I know that they aren't obliged to do so but i do however think that it would be a nice thing to do in return. This annoyingness has me thinking, i am now thinking of having the policy of 'if they give me feedback, i will give them feedback', So my question is to the other sellers on here do you think that is rude to have that policy???, do you have a feedback policy??

Personally i feel that some people may find that rude but i personally see it as fair, and it's not like i am forcing them to give me feedback, they don't have to, if they don't want to. As i feel like i am being nice by leaving feedback and other people don't do the same in return.

I quote 2 days postage. Sometimes it takes me 2 days to post, sometimes an hour. Depends on work, the time of day, the time of year, the ease of access to the item... Where does that put me in your expectations?

If a seller quotes 5 business days handling then it unrealistic to whinge about them not posting quicker than that. And extremely unfair to ding their stars and/or leave a neg. If you need the item quicker than that, buy from somebody else.

Assuming you read a seller's handling time and don't just expect the item to be posted straight away, ragardless.

The P is the pertinent letter, there.

As soon as possible. What if it's not possible for a seller to post an item until 5 days after payment...it would still be as soon as possible, wouldn't it? So why should they be called lazy just because you don't know the reasons why it wasn't possible to post before then?

Sellers have a handling time for a reason - read it, respect it, and if they post within the time frame stated... They did what they said they would and don't deserve a negative. >_>
