Leaving feedback after "expiry" date?

Hello - ages ago I posted a thread about a buyer dispute on PayPal (the thread). Well the dispute has FINALLY been resolved in my favour after nearly 3 months. Therefore, I am ready and in a position to leave feedback for the HORSES !!!!!! :rolleyes: that filed the dispute.

However, the "leave feedback" option has gone from the auction listing (as has the auction listing from ebay). I've read that it's possible to leave feedback anyway after 90 days so long as you know the user ID and item number. If someone could spell out how to do it, I'd appreciate it a lot. :cool:

    I've never had to do it but have you tried manipulating the link? So go to leave feedback for someone current and then change the item and the user id and then it may show up. This works for feedback that's open but unfortunately I haven't got any thats gone over 90 days to try it!

    e.g. here's the link for leaving feedback for someone:
    feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?LeaveFeedbackShow&item=PUTITEMNUMBERHERE&transactID=0&useridto=PUTUSERIDHERE&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:LF

    And just try putting the item number in instead of 'PUTITEMNUMBERHERE' and their user id in place of 'PUTUSERIDHERE'

    *It doesn't work when clicking it as a link so i've had to remove the http:// so you'll have to add that at the beginning too!

    90 days is the limit I reckon! A good laugh might be to calculate the precise time that 90 days limit happens (using auction end as basis) and leave feedback for the "HORSES !!!!!!!" a minute or so before that limit occurs, so no retaliatory negative can be left. ;) Just a thought! Not been in this situation myself yet though.
    Money saving:
    Buy a Skoda. Laugh at the VWs who paid several grand more
    Its a diesel. 50mpg - laugh at all the petrols
    Its a tuned 260bhp diesel - laugh at them in the rearview mirror as they vanish
    See my 260bhp dyno run video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BvjJjL7Z50

    the 90 day limit isnt set in stone, often its a random period between 90-120 days. There is however a backdoor, although Im not going to advertise it openly (otherwise ebay will close it). PM me for details.

    I done this myself a few weeks ago, paid for an item and never received it. Seller offered a refund but that didn't happen either. So in the final seconds of the 90 day limit i left negative feedback but when i clicked leave feedback i was asked was i sure and when i proceeded to leave the neg feedback a red warning appeared saying that the seller had 10-14 days to respond to the feedback. I expected neg feedback in return but they just replied "it takes time to sort out" 90 days and still counting. So be warned they will be able to leave you feedback.

    Not so - i timed one for 90 days and got no such message in December, so unless it's changed since then?

    Was a nasty seller who left everyone NFB who left it for him even if it was totally justified. He was really annoyed.

    Just got a county court judgement against him too. Which he ignored, so now I have just sent the baillifs round which cost him another £50. So far for a £49 faulty item which I returned and he failed to refund, his bill is up to over £200.

    I have got his bank account details from when I purchased off him so if the bailiffs have no luck, it will cost him another £50 for a third party debt order to freeze his account.
