Is it considered "feedback extortion" to demand that a seller perform
what he said he would do or to live up to his listing, otherwise the
buyer will give him negative feedback?
There is no rule on who feedbacks first. But a buyer might give a seller
negative feedback simply for having a policy not to give feedback until
the buyer goes first.
And the buyer also doesn't know if you are a sheep or a goat! But the
buyer pays the money long before he finds out if what you sent was as
described & works. Sending positive feedback after buyer pays is not
knee jerk. The money is all he owes you &...
You opine: In my opinion I feel it should be first left by the person
who is the first to know if a transaction has gone well or not, and that
would be the buyer. For the seller, as a rule, he is the first to know
if the transaction went well for him...
I think that the only reason why buyers can't give feedback, is that so
many of them used feedback as retaliation for the buyer's feedback. So a
buyer would be afraid to report the evil done by a seller, lest the
seller make up lies about the buyer &...
But with the policy of making your feedback depend on the buyer's
feedback, I think you violate Ebay rules & you may get negative feedback
merely for having such a policy.
