Ebay feedbacks

[ponciks]

Can I ask buyers to put good feedbacks? What ebay says about this? Do I risk that ebay could restrict or block my account? Does anybody have expierance?

Of course you can ask, but why would you want to?

The truth is that most buyers don't even care about feedback, and mobile users don't even really see it anyway.

Case in point, I have several seller accounts, some with 1000+ FB TRS, and others with less than 5 feedbacks. Guess what? The lower feedback accounts often get MORE sales than the higher FB accounts do.

Concentrate your time on creating more stealths and selling.

I have received two bad feedbacks in last two days. I have sold more than 100 items but buyers don't put feedback. I want to improve this situation.

Yes you can. I message buyers once their item is delivered and ask for feedback if they had no issues. I also mention I left them a positive feedback.

Something along the lines of:

"We hope you found your purchase to your liking!

Please consider leaving feedback - it helps more than you know!"

Got about 5 in 10 feedback more than not messaging after delivery.


It is important getting feedback to appeal to feedback-oriented buyers.

Niche also affects feedback rates. Female buyers are more feedback-oriented than male IMO.

After your first 50 or so it becomes less important and will accumulate naturally.

I always ask for feedbacks. I would say I get about 40% more positives when I ask and I've never had any issues with eBay.

Best tool for feedback is buying cheap picture in auction (digital picture)- cost 0.05 USD and you can buy as much as you want, then you can get 100 positive feedbacks in one week, but from sellers sure, from buyers it is very hard sometimes, many buyers not care about feedback, but often help to ask buyer to leave feedback it is allowed

I never ask to buyers. You are losing your time asking them. Selling everydays you will receive feedback in few days
