Older Feedback Is Not Displayed?
Summary: lp9999au expressed frustration about not being able to see older feedback on eBay, which they feel impacts their credibility as a seller of specialized items. slippinjimmy suggested trying a different sort option, but lp9999au insisted that feedback was missing, especially for older sales. gone.c-33 explained that eBay doesn't display item information for feedback older than five years. nyr134 shared a similar limitation with their feedback history but didn't notice any deletions. The discussion reflects concerns about the visibility of historical feedback on the platform.
I have been on Ebay since 2003 and have accumulated feedback throughout the decades. However, today, when I found a discrepancy between my feeback #s and the #s shown in the profile, I saw most past feedback is suddenly no longer displayed !. This apparent action by Ebay negatively impacts sellers and buyers, especially those who rely on a proven track record, particularly in specialized items. Yes, I have been using classic view - and I have acquired far more feedback than what is being shown. Moreover, I see the deletions have been arbitrary. I also see others have experienced this. This move is inexcusable and feedbacks should be restored.

·2 weeks agoThe feedback shown for me goes back almost five years even though I have been receiving and giving feedback for more than 25 years.
I can’t really say that there have been arbitrary deletions; how did you determine that was the case for you?

OP2 weeks ago · EditedNon-sense! I am not reading anything incorrectly! Feedback entries, some transactions taking place 20 years ago, were deleted. I strongly advise all members to audit their historic feedback profiles from day one to the present .

·2 weeks agoMany members don't really care about feedback from 20 years ago. Buyers focus on yearly percentage ratings and recent negative feedback.

·2 weeks agoI see 44 received as a seller.
The first one given was for a Thomas Zehetmair Bach Violin Sonatas & Partitas TELDEC Box.

I can see all your feedback.
Try changing the sort to Most Recent instead of Most Relevant.

OP2 weeks ago · EditedReally? I can't. Of course, I sorted on "most recent", classic meanu as well as other idiot steps! What happened to my older sales of Nikons, musical instruments, and other specialized components, parts, or unique vintage items demonstrating my reliable track record ?? Our chronological feedback profile shows a record of our transactions, is our brand, our reputation, aids others making sales/purchase decisions and should not be tampered with.

“Item information is not available for the following items because the feedback is over 5 years old.”
