FEEDBACK this is probably a common question. Why do so few people leave feedback for sellers ? Especially if there has been very positive communication? It used to be for every 10 sale maybe 1 or 2 didn't leave feedback NOW maybe 2 in 10 leave feedback ... is this due to people using their phones for bidding and ect. ?

I'm 70 no smart phone (& have no use for one) This account was originally started by my daughter, but I retired (5 yrs ago) and slowly took over for her. I'm also Tonehound (1998 ~~) on eBay but stopped selling several yrs ago.

Thank you,

@nysha97 We have all noticed less feedback being left. I just leave feedback as soon as the buyer pays and then about half the time they leave feedback.

I am not worried about feedback received from buyers at this point and you shouldn't be either since your feedback score is already good number. A higher feedback score won't help your sales.

Yes but as a retired person and only selling few things a month ALL feedback is good to get. AND now eBay changed feedback so it promotes the item not the seller ??

I agree that the new review the item before leaving feedback for the seller is a HORRIBLE idea. Myself and other Mentors have been pointing this out to eBay staff.

I am retired too and don't sell many items. I doubt my score will go up much since most buyers don't leave it already. I'm not worried though since I have a 100% rating.
