Online auctions, as rightly mentioned, are addictive-provided you have enough time to spend upon. Coming to feedbacks, we need to really please the customer with our product/service-a positive feedback is what the customer feels at the end of the deal.

Comment on Ebay buyer left Neutral Feedback because I didn’t leave Feedback First by The Buyer

The Buyer — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 16:09:34 +0000

OK let me put you sellers right on a few things:

1) You absolutely should leave feedback first. The buyers responsibility is pretty much only to pay for the item and if they do this correctly they deserve positive feedback. They generally will receive a lot less feedbacks than you do since they are a buyer and using this power differential to blackmail them into leaving feedback first is unacceptable.

2) Neutral does not affect feedback rating. Leaving you neutral feedback because you adopted the irritating seller feedback extortion position is perfectly acceptable.

3) You look down on buyers because you think “this is my business”. Well if it is your business then the buyer pay your bills, buys your food, clothes your children. They deserve to receive a good service from you, which includes giving them feedback first.

4) Before eBay made these changes, when operating as a seller I always left feedback first and maintained a 100% feedback score (couple of negatives, but not enough to knock it below 100%). Try trusting the buyer more.

5) If you think about the words, neutral should be reserved for experiences that were not positive. Being subjected to annoying feedback extortion by sellers is a neutral experience.

6) Most buyers (those people who pay your bills) are decent, honest, normal folk. Only a very tiny portion of buyers will attempt to screw with you so don’t worry about the 1 or 2 who do, as you say normal buyers can easily see from your feedback record what you are really about. So try trusting and respecting those who pay your bills and leave the feedback first.

7) Let go you control freak! As a buyer with a seller who leaves positive feedback first I’ve more than once left a positive feedback about an experience I would otherwise have left a neutral for (item not quite as described, i.e. described as perfect condition but has minor cosmetic blemishes for example). Getting in a stress about it won’t help anyone, least of all you.

eBay adjusting the balance of power to favour the buyer a little more increases my confidence to shop on eBay and therefore I am more likely to be one of the people paying your bills. I now know that there is no reason to leave inaccurate poitive feedback and only those who haven’t realised the change in the system are still doing it. Before, eBay feedback was a joke. I could find scammers with thousands of positive feedbacks for their scam sales, because the items on sale were very low price items and the buyers didn’t want to get negative feedbacks as well as scammed. Give it a chance, in time even sellers will prefer it if they think about it a bit. It adds credibility to the decent sellers.

I don’t know about pay-pal pay later, but I know of a easy way to help build credit. You can go to a local furniture store or rent a center type place and buy a piece of furniture or some kind of electronics and pay on it. That will build credit. At least it used to. I haven’t had to worry about that in years. There are also credit cards for people with bad or no credit. The interest charges are big and the limits are low, but if you pay on time, it will build credit. Good luck on it, just be careful.

Buyers should be able to differentiate between genuine feedback and fake feedback. As long as the seller has a decent number of positive feedback, it should work out fine in my opinion. At least this is what I did.

Comment on Ebay Fee Reduction Challenge by Jamie Guadaldo

Jamie Guadaldo — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 04:22:16 +0000

While this may reduce fees, also remember this might also mess up potential buyers. Since most people go to their respective countries to ebay (us, uk, germany, japan as an example) it might be hard to balance potential buyers versus the need to reduce costs.

If you could somehow combine these two elements, your ebay profits would zoom up because expenses were coming down.
