Unfortunately, not all sellers will leave feedback. You should buy things from different sellers that have a feedback score of at least 100 and 99% positive. The first thing you should do is buy a few things on eBay to get your feedback started. Getting to a score of 50 starting from scratch is going to take some work. 50 is also the feedback level needed to qualify for PayPal's $2,000 buyer protection program.

You need a minimum feedback score of 50 with a 100% positive rating before buyers will begin to trust you for moderately expensive items. Before you can be an effective eBay seller, you will need to have a feedback rating that buyers will trust. While having good feedback as a buyer is nice, it is absolutely critical to have excellent feedback as an eBay seller. Multiple feedback received in the same week from the same buyer will still count as a single feedback rating. However, auctions must end on a different week to count. Multiple feedback from the same buyer will count in the feedback percentage. Unfortunately, if you are a low volume seller, a single negative feedback can ruin your feedback percentage for the entire year. In the past when all feedback received was used in the feedback percentage calculation, some sellers with very large feedback scores were able to steal money from buyers for an extended period of time before the accumulation of negative feedback began to affect the feedback percentage. By using only the most recent feedback, buyers get a more accurate idea on how reliable the seller is. Feedback older than 12 months still count in the total feedback score, but it is not used in the feedback percentage calculation. Neutral feedback does not affect the feedback percentage. The positive feedback percentage is computed by the formula: New users who joined less than 30 days ago have a displayed next to their user ID. A large feedback score indicates more experience, while a small score indicates an inexperienced user. The overall feedback score can tell you how experienced a buyer or seller is on eBay. You have up to 60 days from the end of the auction to leave feedback.Īs you earn feedback points, eBay will award you feedback stars that appear alongside of your feedback score: The feedback and the comment that you leave become a permanent part of your trading partner's feedback record. You can also leave a short comment with your feedback where you can provide more details about the transaction. A negative should be given if there was serious problem with the item (or not received at all) and the seller was unable to remedy the situation. Leave a neutral if there was a minor problem, but the item received was acceptable. Positive feedback should be left if you are satisfied with the transaction.

To start a postive experience with the buyer, feedback should be left when payment has been received from the buyer.Īs a buyer, you can leave the seller one of the three feedback ratings. If you are a seller, you can only leave positive feedback for the buyer.
