Had this one daitai211 simply not pay for a bag after asking me if I would ship to Singapore. I said I would if she paid for the shipping but it would be free if I were to ship to her verified address in Oregon. After that, I never heard from her again. 100% positive feedback I guess doesn't seem to mean much anymore!

Since you can't neg buyers, 100% for a buyer means NOTHING.

ETA: that ID isn't coming up as valid???

And I don't understand why a seller can't leave honest feedback....if you've had a bad experience with a buyer why can't you leave a negative report.

Someone explain this to me please....

You haven't been able to leave buyers negative feedback since May 2008. The reason they'll give you is in their Q&A:
"Why can't you leave negative or neutral feedback for a buyer?"


Sellers can leave a positive feedback rating and a comment for buyers, but they can't leave negative or neutral feedback. Negative feedback discourages buyers from future transactions and can lead to lower sales. We offer more effective ways for sellers to deal with issues with buyers. For example, if a buyer hasn't paid, you can open an unpaid item case in the Resolution Center. You can also block a buyer from purchasing items you've listed.
Follow these selling tips to help avoid transaction problems.

Ahhhh...thank you for that, TinksDelite. I've had nothing but good experiences in all my years on eBay so I never had to research this issue before. It's only been recently....like the last few months that I've been hit with a couple of lousy selling transactions. I guess I've been lucky!

Made an offer. Accepted. Invoice sent. I even reduced the shipping fee because she said she didn't need the original gift box.

No payment made. Buyer canceled transaction without any communications.

So people these days can't even take 1 minute out of their lives to send a sorry-i-changed-my-mind message?

marcellrondale_0 never paid me, and apparently a number of other sellers (check her "100%" feedback, there are several comments).

bhsbe.us.cumpnkhudw just signed up today, bought a Coach item from me, and PayPal put the funds on hold. I called to ask why (I'm not new) and they said it was a high-risk transaction due to the buyer! I didn't know they held for shady buyers! Apparently this one had a history of filing a lot of disputes. I refunded and cancelled the transaction. Not worth the potential headache.

abdm01 - they paid via echeck (for a used Kendra Scott necklace) and then asked why I didn't ship when they paid. I shipped the day it cleared and hours after it arrived they opened a case and claimed it was a fake without even contacting me. I explained how it was authentic and even shared a picture with the tag on from when I first got it - but told them to return as it's real and I'm guessing it was buyer's remorse. Got it back and it looks fine so I refunded and blocked. Just glad they didn't switch it.

This buyer did pay but be aware if you sell clothes (JCrew especially)

Gave me negative feedback (my 1st) when selling 2 new Cambridge cable wool/cashmere blend sweaters (Retail: around $80 each) She got both for $39 and her feedback stated only

"Cashmere is thin"

She did not contact me at all.

Put her on your blocked list!
