It is a board furphey that negative feedback for buyers was stopped because of vengeful sellers.

It is a guess at best that most sellers block non paying bidders.

It is a fact that if the NPB system worked correctly then you would not need to add a non paying bidder manually to your blocked

bidders list.

It is a fact that those sellers who leave feedback for non paying bidders help highlight serial neggers, non paying bidders and

INR scammers and the downfalls of the NPB system.

Without those negative positive comments we would all be wondering whether the NPB system works or not. ( The no negative feedback  policy for buyers that ebay seems to prefer could also be named "the mushroom policy" ie it keeps sellers in the dark and feeds them on

It is only the sellers that take the time to investigate after being stung and then highlight it that tell the true tale of non paying bidders

Once feedback was described by ebay as the foundation of trust now buyer feedback is more revered  as useless
