    A cheeky way of getting feedback removed is to leave her feedback with some swear words in it. This is against Ebay t&c's so they will remove all feedback associated with the transaction from both the buyer & the seller.

    Not a myth, it happened to me. I left a seller a neg for not refunding me for a non delivered item. He left me some swear words. Next day, both our feedback was gone.

    That is exactly how it works in that the profane or identifiying feedback is removed, the other half of the feedback if it conforms to ebay policy is not removed. If you read the link it does not suggest anywhere that accurate feedback is removed as well.

    the feedback i left her is still there today, I have emailed ebay and told them that we agreed to mutually withdraw so hers should have been removed. i don't hold any hope of them actually doing anything though.

    the buyer is fine about it all though, and i have left a follow up stating that we have agreed to mutually withdraw so hopefully ebay will be able to see this and see that my feedback from her was removed so hers should be too
