Feedback changes announced!!!

I don't like this move. I recently had a buyer have a go at me (their emails were extremely threatening) because they had not received an item within three days. Two of these days were Christmas Day and Boxing Day!

I daren't leave her negative feedback because I am sure they will retaliate.

The whole retaliation thing goes both ways ...

this will surely mean the scammers with (-1) feedback will slip under the radar no?

why oh why don't ebay have a system where feedback is submitted by both parties and only released when both have submitted. If one side doesn't submit after 30 days, they loose the opportunity to submit and the other party allows their feedback to go forward.

anything wrong with this idea?

Think this is already on the forums here, unless I read it somewhere else - but it seems a slightly bizarre move by eBay to prevent sellers leaving negative feedback for buyers.

This has been the hot topic of conversation on EVERY ebay forum since last Tuesday afternoon.

Just as the dust is starting to settle, the BBC (on the ball as ever... ) make it front page news, and loads of people are in a state of shock. Again.

OP Don't worry - every ebay forum has had a similar post today!!

Don't bother - the moderation queue is massive as they seem to stop moderating at about 5.30pm and will no doubt not open it again when they see how many messages they have to read.


I for one won't be leaving any feedback for buyers at all in future, unless they give me good feedback first.

Mind you, how will they stop us putting a NEGATIVE COMMENT in a POSITIVE FEEDBACK???
