If this change was made, why under 'report buyer' does it still say, "if your buyer has not paid, please open an unpaid item case?"
Why is it impossible to even leave negative feedback for someone that doesn't pay or communicate at all?
Question 1 - because eBay is often tardy about updating the wording of some of the help pages
If you go to this link:
https://www.ebay.com/help/selling/getting-paid/resolving-unpaid-items-buyers?id=4137
It details the current method to deal with unpaid items.
Question 2 - Because it would accomplish NOTHING in terms of payment (tons of non-payers back in the days when you could give a buyer negative feedback). The primary reason sellers can't give negs to buyers is because many sellers could not handle the responsibility, they might give a buyer a negative simply because they didn't like their name, didn't like where they lived, didn't like a question they asked or most frequently as retaliation against a buyer who gave them a well deserved negative.
Some sellers acted like children, some still do and the last things eBay and eBay sellers need is third-rate sellers chasing buyers away.
