Does Buying oin ebay increase your feedback score?

Does purchasing off ebay increase your fb score or is it just selling?

If you buy something the seller will usually leave you feedback...which adds to your feedback score.

Seller feedback is what's important though. If you plan on selling with the account, then having tons of buyer feedback only doesn't really mean anything

If you want to build feedback do it by selling. Buyers aren't dumb and only care really of your selling feedback. I know you might want to the fastest method but really just put some solid work into your business.

Sell loads of low priced - low risk items and before you know it you will have loads of feedback.

Buyers do like it when they receive their item pretty quick, especially if its before the stated time and are likely to leave feedback............

I buy things cheap, on sale, that I know I will lose a few bucks on to start new accounts.....example paid 12.99 for some logitech mice and im selling them at 10.99, plus 3.99 for shipping. so afte fees and shipping im losing a few bucks but i consider it the price of whats to come

For the whole look of the account, every feedback counts. For SELLER strength of the account, the selling fb is most important

It does help in a sense. I usually when I start a stealth account buy several cheap items before over a month or two before I even attempt to sell anything. Obviously the larger ticket items and selling more and more items all calculate into eBay's risk formula.

Same here with getting buying feedback going first makaveli
