I agree. Feedback if you are a buyer is really meaningless. I too am a seller that does not leave feedback till I receive feedback, this is because the transaction is not over just because a bidder pays. As we all know so much can go wrong after the sale. Once a buyer leaves me feedback and I know they are happy I leave feedback.

Here is what I'm thinking could happen...buyers that would normally hesitate leaving neutral or negative feedback for a small issue will now have no reason NOT to leave neut or negs. What do they have to loose? Nothing.

Buyers who may not be absolutely 100% ecstatic about their purchase can leave a neutral or neg for stupid silly things, like shipping-transit times, which, we all know sellers have no control over.

Sellers, we've all had those hard-to-please buyers that no matter what you do, you cannot make them 100% happy - even refunding a payment for example, because a buyer bought the wrong size shoe. What's to stop them from giving you a neut or neg anyway just because they're jerks.

JMHO - I hate eBay.....I just have no choice right now, because no other auction site gets the hits eBay does...sigh
