Feedback

[tjsridge-9508]

I am a long time TOP RATED seller and I take feedback very seriously. Can anyone explain why 

there is a very long delay before feedback appears .. Feedback for Items sold 6-8-10 weeks ago 

mysteriously  show up after a long period of time  Feedback that I leave gets entered upon payment …

What makes you think that there is a long delay? I assume the feedback shows up when the buyer leaves it.

EBay does not use Feedback to assess member accounts and has not for over a decade.

They don't use DSRs for anything at all.

Mostly because FB is just opinion and partly because less than 40% of transactions EVER got any feedback, and I believe most of that was left by sellers.

As long as your FB is over 98% you are fine. Most buyers think 95% is hunky dory and an "A".

Leave it for your buyers to give them the warm pink fuzzies, but otherwise, meh.

FYI

Leaving negative comments in a positive rating for a buyer is a violation.

We are for the most part selling/catering to Millennials these days.

They expect everything to be done or given to them, but absolutely will not do for others.

They appreciate nothing.

If they are eventually getting around to leaving you feedback in their good time, appreciate that you are getting it at all......don't complain about it.

You are probably getting their feedback now because they have learned that other members check out their feedback metrics, mainly "Feedback Left for Others".

 You are getting their feedback to benefit them, not you.

No matter, appreciate it just the same.

Buyers have the choice to leave feedback sooner or later. Some buyers will leave feedback soon, while others will leave feedback later, sometimes because they didn’t open the package up yet, or it hasn’t arrived and they want to wait.

Leaving a false positive feedback like you did below is a violation of eBay policy and can get you permanately banned from selling on ebay.

I agree somewhat however there are many buyers that use it as a guide

According to  brandongaille.com, 61% of eBay account holders are over 35. I'd be interested in your source for your statement that sellers are "selling/catering to Millennials these days." The oldest millennials would just be hitting forty this year.

You are 100% correct and I apologize .. just very frustrating .. not about the money as much as 

not hearing back from the buyer 

Stay Safe

You are correct and I apologize … never concerned about the money in all my years doing this as a hobby   However frustration in not hearing back to numerous emails isn’t good 

you stay safe
