[QUOTE="The_Cave_Troll, post: 223586, member: 1674"]I strongly disagree with your opinion. When a seller leaves feedback prior to the completeion of the transaction (the satifactory delivery of the sold item to the buyer) he is asking for trouble, and only a seller who wants to deal with unnecessary problems and feedback extortion would choose to leave feedback as soon as payment is recieved. As a seller, I am never satisfied with a transaction simply because I was paid, there is much more too it than that and to leave premature feedback only serves to allow a buyer to make a non-positive transaction take place without my ability to warn other sellers about their shenanigans. I agree that the new system is still seriously flawed, but reqiring immediate feedback is akin to trying to kill a virus by shooting the patient. I would support a "feedback escrow" system that would allow each party to leave feedback that is held "in waiting" until the other party to the transaction has left feedback, at which point both parties' feedback would post. If one party chooses to not leave feedback then the feedback would post as soon as they can no longer leave a response. This would eliminate retaliatory feedback altogether.
