Do you ever read this part of a person's feedback? I always wonder why some people don't leave feedback at all. I have a person that buys from me all the time but she has NEVER left feedback for anyone. I didn't realize how many people don't leave feedback until I started reading these. Wonder why?

I would guess that people don't leave feedback for about 15% of all transactions.

1) they just don't care
2) they forget to leave feedback
3) they are new users not familiar with the process

They're more interested in getting their item, than in getting a star.

If buyers want to leave feedback for me that's fine, if not that's fine too.

My main concern is getting paid.

The only good thing about feedback from buyers is that I know they received their item. Otherwise feedback is pretty meaningless.

In my opinion, ebay encourages positive feedback so they can point to it and use it as a media tool in order to hype the safety and success of ebay transactions.

I think Sanmar is right. I can't tell you how many buyers have confessed they don't know how to use feedback and have never even seen their own.

On all three of my selling accounts, I always leave feedback, good or bad. In each of them, I receive 60% return feedback. This has held true since I began with ebay over 6 years ago.

Interesting discussion! I just checked my main account for buying AND selling. I've received 1,442 FBs, left 1,768 (which is all of them--I've never skipped one). As I figure it, that's about 81%. Not too bad, huh.
