new feedback change

i dont like a lot oftheir changes. i tend to not leave negative feedback unless absolutely necessary, i give everyone the benefit of the doubt, and i've never gotten negative either. but some buyers really REALLY need negative feedback so you can warn others about them. i dont like the increased fees for selling, i do like the free gallery. but i'm exploring other avenues to sell my goods!

This is the thing about eBAY that always bothered me. Back in time it used to read that the seller was supposed to leave the feedback first because the buyer is FIRST in the transaction.... Meaning they pay.... The seller is supposed to comment on how that went.... Then it is the buyers turn.... Did they receive it? Was it what they bought? Was it fast? Was everything the way it should be and if not, was the seller professional about it? This made 100% senes and I thought that was the only way to do it. Honestly, this is how it should be. However it started being that I saw sellers saying openly on their sales page that they will leave feedback ONLY after receiving it. WHAT? Why don't they want to say how fast I paid? They are worried you say somehting bad, then thy shouldn't DO anything bad right? That became common place. Sellers would wait for the buyer.... BUT the BIGGEST problem I saw was the crooked sellers would use this idea of posting comments last to RETALLIATE agaisnt honest and deserved negative feedback. Being a jerk isn't a reason to give bad feedback IF everything else went right, in my opinion. People are people.... and if the service went well who cares that they didn't kiss your bum, or were short about it. Some people MISTAKE other's text anyway as you can not tell the tone of voice from text often. eBAY should make efforts to stop retalliation feedback as that is NOT right. That in fact, would be an outright lie and against the eBAY guidelines anyway. I lost interest in eBAY though a while back and use other internet stores and such to buy things.
