Feedback
I can’t figure out why I’m not getting any feedback. I ship all of my items is polymailers. But I seal them for protection inside a plastic baggie, taped nicely first. I don’t use tissue paper or any fancy cards. I only have 1 shipment that took more that a day & half the time I end up paying for part of the shipping. After weeks of research & reading what other successful sellers do they say it’s a waste of money for fancy wrapping, etc. - all my shipments are first class. Under 12 ounces, so far at least. I’ve received 4 feed backs on 28 sales? Is it rude to contact buyers & ask for feedback - What is going on?

·4 years agoI think buyers have 60 days to leave feedback, so it's not always immediate. Some buyers wait awhile and do them all at once every few months. You may still be getting some.

·3 years agoThanks for posting this. I shipped my item, the seller received it as described. I was promptly paid, left positive feedback but received none. This buyer mostly buys and has thousands of positive feedbacks. My guess is that he does his feedback as you noted. It has been about 2 weeks. If I receive none in a month I'll pursue it. Thanks for a good informed reply to a "no feedback" question.

·4 years agoFeedback has lost its importance over the years. Once a buyer has received their item with no issues, they just move along. No one has time to go back just to leave a comment, that has no payback for them. There is no incentive for a buyer to leave feedback.
You should look at your positives as a sign that you are doing everything correctly as a seller. Buyers will look for neutrals and negative comments, no one will be reading anything positive written about anyone else. No one has the time anymore. Concentrate on that and the excellent job you are already doing, and your feedback will improve over time. Best of luck to you....

·3 years agoFeedback is important. And for me it was for buyers and sellers.
I check sellers feedback, especially first time purchases. I check to see a pattern of worsening recent problems. I check to see if they have orders where they are totally silent and don't ship or ghost the buyer.
For buyers I would check to see if they were problem buyers, not paying, scamming people, threatening sellers, if they have a history of being a Karen with feedback.
Feedback is/was a treasure trove of info especially if its showing patterns, either good or bad.
