feedback

[foundgoodbuy]

I had a couple sales cancelled by the buyer. I can only leave Positive feedback. I don't have any other options. How do I fix this? Thanks

You can end this now by not replying anymore. Sometimes you should just let go once you feel your point is made.

I certainly don’t do it “every chance” I get - the numbers don’t come close to supporting the narrative.

Yeah, you do.

Please remember the mentor guideline of not piling on and not continuing an argument. To just outright state that I jump on someone every chance I get can easily be verified or refuted by looking at the history. If you don’t want to do that, fine.

There is a difference between cancelling bids and cancelling an actual sale/transaction.

Instead of arguing with others to point our what you perceive to be errors of others, how about sticking to helping OPs with their issues? 

If you're really here to help, your actions and posts are appearing to be otherwise.

my Lord – all I wrote was “please be nice”

I’ve made a few other posts today, answering some questions and giving some advice. I don’t know why people continue to just create a fight and create drama.

Only the seller can cancel.  

So how did your buyer cancel the sale?

Come on – you know that the buyer can’t cancel. Please be nice.

That is what she said.

Preemptive apology here for my post, but I just have to do this. Report me if you want, but I don't think it violates any board policy. Sorry if it doesn't contribute to whatever feud I just stepped into. So here it is:

Your post doesn't violate policy.  Contributions to the issue that have transpired on this thread isn't necessary at all.   There is good reason for the back and forth, but I realize it is not helpful or shouldn't be happening.

I actually didn't read any further when I added my previous reply to your post.

Hm, yea. Seems like the thread spiraled since then. Surprised the mod's haven't chimed in yet. Anyway, I'm sure the OP already saw their question answered since they were able to tag one as the best answer.

Hi everyone,

This discussion has gotten a bit heated. Please remember that, while it is fine to disagree with others, discussion should always remain friendly and respectful as required by the Community Guidelines.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Funny - that's what I immediately thought of when I saw that reply.  I'm not even a big fan of the Office, but that is classic stuff.  Thanks for the levity!

You can't fix the feedback policy for buyers, but you can still block them if you want. You can do that through your HUB.

Isn't that exactly what I said? Is there a difference between "a buyer cannot cancel" and "the buyer can't cancel"?

I'm guessing Powell would rephrase his reply if he knew the cannot/can't thing would defeat the point of his reply.  So let's start over.  Here was your (full) post:

From maryl's question we gained insight as the OP responded that the buyer cancelled bids. So technically there was not even a sale.

No one can leave any feedback when there was no binding agreement.

Thank you for a noble attempt at mediation and reasonable fig leaf to all involved.
