It is rather ironic that eBay implores us to give honest feedback and then denies the seller the right of doing that.  One person I have just had problems with has a 100% feedback rating.  When you read the feedback, in four of the cases the sellers have been let down and have had to give vent to their frustrations by giving poor feedback in words under the guise of positive.  If four have gone to that extent, goodness knows how many other sellers this 100% eBayer was welched on.  Why eBay does not regard these deliquent payers as not meeting their standards, I just don't know.  This is one of two major gripes I have with eBay and my coomments to them have just been disregarded.

My own 100% feedback means nowhere near as much to me as it once did because of Ebay's policy.

If sellers would refrain from giving a positive green dot to bad buyers, some of those buyers wouldn't build up what looks like an impressive 100% rating. Their number would stay low.

Frustrating as it might be, it doesn't make a lot of sense to give any feedback at all to bad buyers or non payers. Just put in an unpaid item dispute, that will eventually hit the buyer harder when they find themselves blocked off from some purchases.

We only leave feedback for buyers once we pack & send their item.

This way if they don't pay  they get no feedback from us at all.
