Does no one leave feedback on e-bay anymore?

Does no one leave feedback on e-bay anymore?

I don't sell much but on my last 11 sales, not one buyer has left any feedback, and yes I have left feedback for all of them.

Has anyone else noticed this?

I wouldn't worry about, eBay class no feedback as a Positive

In the last three months,I've received 21 feedbacks,but 17 buyers haven't left any.(I don't leave feedback for buyers first though.)

I have my moments and mark down sellers that dont leave feedback...

I tend to forget about it then remember and do a bulk feedback.

As I mostly only buy on eBay I don't even know if sellers leave me feedback. Since they can only leave positive it makes no odds to me if it's left at all. It did when I first joined. But now I have over 400 and no possibility of a neg I don't care.

Dear lord, we need look no further as to why decent sellers are leaving ebay in droves with buyers having that attitude.
At least stars are no longer anonymous so sellers will be able to deal with it.

This is what i tend to do also.

As a seller, I see that feedback is left as confirmation that the buyer has received the item, is happy with it, then and only then, is the transaction complete - at that time they get a return feedback.

Before then, I have no idea whether it has arrived or whether they are going to be a pain in the arris over INR or INAD. Those people do not get the same feedback as everyone else.

Please do not ever become a buyer of mine!!!

As a seller I only leave feedback once the buyer has, that way I know they have received the item. Buyers that haven't left feedback I chase up after approx 3 weeks.

PS. You are selling an item, not feedback. I don't leave reviews for everyone else I buy from online, I cannot understand why people are so hung up on feedback unless they love themselves and want some praise for being great at selling. I do not care either way whether it is left for me as long as the customer is happy with their item, that is all that concerns me.

I leave feedback automatically on receipt of payment. You're more than welcome to be a customer of mine:D

I think therein lies one issue on feedback, some buyers like getting it and are likely to be a return customer if they get it sooner. There's no point not leaving it first, feedback makes no difference to a buyer's account (whether they get it or not). The only reason buyer feedback still exists is because it's now a tool to get sales, some buyers will buy something just to get their feedback to the next number.
