Reply to "Feedback's becoming a wast of time!"

I can see your point(s), I'm a seller too. But actually you've just proved my initial point.

I quote, " I have one neg feedback and thank goodness I was able to give him a neg as well."

This is exactly the kind of tit-for-tat use of feedback that destroys the spirit of the thing. It leads to the blackmail situation we've discussed, in other words, "Bad-mouth me and I'll do the same to you!".

Yes, the seller does take a risk, I said a few negs are almost inevitable and what's so bad about 97%? - it's never turned me off a seller.

Keep in mind that if you receive a negative you have the chance to comment on it and state your case there.

I sell, and I give a positive feedback immediatley on receipt of payment too. If I took the attitude that you propose it would take the fun out of dealing and the pleasure out of contact with people, which is a big part of the eBay experience.
