<p>[QUOTE="MorganFred, post: 41559, member: 1779"]I'm also one of those who feels the eBay feedback system as it is presently constructed is deficient, ineffective, and subject to manipulation. I also give feedback on every auction, but receive feedback on only about 60% of my sales; most of those who fail to give me feedback are relative newbies, but their reasons for not doing so are probably as varied as their numbers. I'm not gonna try to change human nature, so I don't brood on it. As a seller, I give feedback as soon as I receive the money; IMHO, the buyer has kept up his part of the transaction. As a buyer, I give feedback as soon as I receive the item and am satisfied with it. And I have an intense distaste for sellers who wait until my feedback is posted before they post theirs. Feedback extortion is the major weakness of the system and eBay has made it clear they have no intention to change it. As it stands right now, a buyer's or seller's feedback is the only means for determination of their integrity and reliability. The system needs changing; perhaps a withholding of feedback posts until both parties have posted such that one feedback will not affect the other.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
