You can't just "get" positive feedback. One must buy something (my suggestion to you in your case) or sell something. It all goes into feedback. I would personally put a notation on the feedback that the buyer left- to note the postal holiday deal. I actually read others feedback but as you are worrying, ONLY buy from 98% and above. I just did lower than that for some items lately and surprise! They never arrived in a month and a half! Stupid people! Also- for the future- I have had bad days that messed me up on shipping etc. I always contact the buyer and leave them a note and say its on its way- they have never left back feedback as I did that. A little sugar goes a long way.
As to your anniversary- I would worry more about a wonderful day. Give her a picnic, a certificate for a day somewhere. A beautiful card- those things mean more. Really. I am at 25 years with my hubby. We just got re married in the silly little chapel in Palm Springs where we eloped! We were alone, it was sunny and beautiful and we had a great dinner after and it was the best date in years. Its time and thought that make it.
Auction ended on Saturday night the 16th and negative feedback was left on Tuesday morning the 19th?
What's wrong with that buyer?
Feedback can't be left with out you ether selling something or buying something from someone else, begging for positive feedback is dangerous and may backfire. I advise checking your dates on future listings, if the time it ends is gonna be during a time you can't go ship it delay the listing.
i know buyers can be a little harsh and frustrating at times but really doing this is against ebay rules- besides you have to pay fees for all those fake auctions if someone were to bid and leave feedback on them lol.
It also violates the TOS (Terms of Service) right here!
ok so before you think that im planning on scamming people, hear me out. i recently sold my ipod on ebay, the buyer placed the order on a sunday night. monday was presidents day, so i couldnt ship it until tuesday. then the little bi*ch gives me negative feedback saying it took me too long to mail it. im trying to sell a couple other miscellaneous items on ebay but it gives me a message saying that because of the negative feedback i can only list 1 item at a time. my anniversary is coming up and i want to get my girlfriend something special but i wont be able to if i dont have the money. my ebay username is filip02184, any help would be GREATLY appreciated. thank you.
