buyer feedback drying up

[lane-ends]

Used to run at 80% or so buyers left feedback. Last few months and it has dropped to around 50%..Whats causing that, is it a buyer attitude thing or is it the way the system is laid out..?

They always find the time to post negative feedback when they want, regardless of the device they use.

I think ebay should credit sellers positive feedback on every sale UNLESS the buyer reports an issue with the transaction. It adds a layer of responsibility to the buyers experience that is lacking these days, and frankly, I am tired of every policy and decision made by ebay being partial to the buyers side and not the seller.

You got that right Viva. I got my first negative today. No communication,  no nothing,  just straight for the jugular. They kindly left a neutral for their other feedback. Gotta love low feedback buyers!

This the issue it falsely inflates the bad fb %, as it is the good ones due that are missing. It will also inflate the low dsr defect %.

The layout of the items one page is different which may have an effect. I used to leave fb then delete, not the procedure is not the same so the items awaiting fb stay mixed up with the rest and so dont stand out. Hence my recent purchases I haven't responded as quick.
