Is there a way to retract feedback?

**mclldavidson** · 05-18-2009 11:43 AM

My last transaction went smooth, the seller shipped fast. I promptly left + feedback and asked for some in return. I have not received my feedback and wish to retract my feedback if possible since the seller doesn't want to give in return

Don't you know that?

You can buy and sell things on the board. Both, buyer and seller are then asked to leave either positive or negative feedback. It's just like on Ebay.

Ah, I thought me might be talking about that but having never done it I figured feedback was just a post back to the thread. You can edit that anytime you want, is there some other feedback system?

The buy/sell/trade score is what he's referring to. It's not just a post, so I doubt it can be edited or retracted.

Personally, just because someone didn't return the favor, doesn't mean your feedback isn't true and it should be kept on there.

Going forward, perhaps you should require they provide you feedback before you give them any.

Yea I would suggest you wait until the other person gives you feedback first....do the same for ebay

Happens to me all the time. I hardly worry about it anymore.

Bullshit...

What the fuck is all this holding feedback hostage crap about??? I didn't understand it on ebay and I don't understand it here...

I sold things here...The buyer held up their end of the deal by paying...BINGO!!! They get positive feedback from me right then and there...I have bought things here...The seller held up their end of the deal by shipping said product in said condition...BINGO!!! They get positive feedback from me right then and there...

WTF is the whining about if you didn't get feedback from the buyer/seller??? Further more WTF is this mentality of "holding" feedback until you get feedback??? Grow the fuck up and do whats right...Two wrongs don't make a right so leave your feedback and go on with your life...If the other party doesn't want to leave feedback what difference does it make to you??? You are'nt the douche bag they are...Just don't deal with them again...One can even go back to the sales thread and post that you left feedback but the threadstarter did not...

That will accomplish 2 things...First it puts pressre on the OP to leave feedback...Maybe something happened they forgot or thought already left it...Things do come up...The follow up post can always be deleted once the OP responds by leaving the precious feedback...

The second thing is it will let others know that the seller may not be honorable and it might be wise to deal with someone else if no response...ie feedback being left...

All that said I have several buyers that did not leave me feedback for purchases made but I left them feedback...It's nothing but a thang and will not be needlessly dwelled upon...

This bullshit of tit for tat is what is wrong with people tday...Grow the fuck up and quit getting your panties in a bunch...You'll find that you will be MUCH happier and you might live longer too...

You have a good mix of seller and buyer feedback. I wouldn't worry about it.

I think the ebay feedback works different now but before you would sell something, the buyer would pay you, you leave them positive feedback, and then if the buyer for some reason was not happy they would fuck you with a negative feed back and you couldnt do shit about it, so people would normally wait until the person receives the item and leaves you good feedback.

as far as feed back goes here in the forums I dont think it matters

Bingo! I will not leave feedback first as a seller on eBay any longer. There are too many ways the buyer can get out of the transaction now, not to mention you can no longer leave negative feedback for them.

splicer, calm down it's not even that serious. I never worried about it. I would message the person twice at the most with a friendly reminder asking them to please leave feedback when possible and if they didn't then oh well I went on about my business.

Glad to hear it...
