Negative Feedback Invite from eBay

Filed under: Selling on eBay, To eBay or Not To Ebay, eBay vs. other Venues — admin @ 11:54 am

As of today, eBay sellers can only leave positive feedback for buyers… this is just another step in process eBay is trying to take to Amazonite itself.

Not being able to leave feedback makes a lot of eBay sellers unhappy, since eBay is much more prone to fraud and scams, compared to Amazon.

This new pop up window presented to an eBay buyer who is about to leave feedback for a seller appears to be encouraging buyers to leave negative feedback.

I am not sure if eBay platform full of 89% positive feedback sellers would not backfire on eBay sell throughs. I personally check the seller rating on eBay and I am used to seeing good numbers. Seeing low feedback scores across the board may just send the buyers to competing websites, such as Amazon.
