    admit it, you're a bit lazy!

    i send emails often to remind people to leave feedback.

    as a seller, i won't leave feedback till it's left for me
    as a buyer i leave feedback a few days after i receive the item

    I've spent 10x as much as I would if I had never discovered this website :-)

    Are people forgetting that feedback is voluntary?

    Personally I wouldn't leave any feedback at all now. 6 emails is way over the top, IMO more than 1 reminder was too much.

    It seems unfair to leave a neg or a neutral if the transaction went through fine and she left you a positive. I would either NOT leave feedback at all if she has really narked you off or leave honest feedback about the sale (i.e. positive if this was the case) and just reply to her email saying that you've been away and didn't appreciate being bugged about feedback so much.

    If you're stuck for words re how to phrase feedback then this feedback generator could come in handy :p ..I especially like the frivolous negatives!

    I always leave feedback, unless they have taken an age to pay/deliver!! If people dont leave me any, then so be it, it aint the end of the world, it is only an internet site!!!
    In this trusted place U can erase
    Every tear that ever rolled down your weary face
    All the time U waste in that paper chase
    Is time better spent in these arms of mine

    Just log into Ebay and leave the poor woman some positive feedback!

    With a bit of luck you'll have something more important to worry about by next week ;)

  • Most people don't leave feedback, as a seller that's quite frustrating. It's hardly a huge email that you get, and it doesn't take much to delete! Some people just set up their account to send out periodic reminders.

    has this woman got little feedback ? Is she trying with all her might to build up good feedback to build a good reputation? Your sale went through ok and as others have said it does not take long to log on and leave the feedback. Go on..give the woman a break..leave her some positive feedback..you know you want to!:rolleyes:
    I have had brain surgery - sorry if I am a little confused sometimes ;)

    I've had this sort of thing before, I would just leave a positive feedback with reference to the pestering. Just something along the lines of "good transaction but repeatedly pestered me for feedback". It won't hurt her score but might get the message across.
