in response to the Million + POSTS OR RESPONSES regarding feedback on The Bay :

My 2 cents is a s follows

I agree on both sides - buyer & seller ( i do both )and rick has put is as simple as it gets.

The feedback is left upon finalization of the deal or transaction. I get /pay the Money , then i Ship/Receive the goods...Pretty simple. I beleive That it would be in the Buyers Responsibility to notify the seller that the Item has / Has Not been Received. The MOST practical way is to leave feedback (why send an e mail & a F / B) ...the seller ( at least i do ) should mark the item Shipped or payment received(if mailed) under e bay"stats" anyone who has the account access should be able to know if it has been shipped , payment received , etc.

I only leave feedback upon shipping if The Buyer Is a club Member , or a repeat buyer.

ANY negatives , or questionable feedback / comments on the board , etc, WILL ONLY get a f/b after i get it from them. C Y A

When you purchase something from someones Shop , if you are unhappy with the product / transaction - if you dont notify the owner of a problem.TOO MANY punks out there , that would rather leave a Negative , than e mail you , or calling.....I dont feel strongly enough about %90 of the people in this society to risk MY GOOD WORD to a mindless few .
To those of you i have dealt with , and do so on a regular basis , THANK YOU , i appreciate that 10% of you being Good Humans , can make it worth my free time ,and the endless pursuit of trying to GIT 'ER DONE !
