I bought a 400 on ebay back in June received it in the middle of July and left positive feedback even though the corners were roughed up. Its August and this guy has yet to leave feedback for me. Heres the kicker his current auction states that anyone with less than 5 positive cant bid. So I asked him how to get 5 if the seller doesnt leave any, then I let him know who I was. Its not that hard to leave a sellers feedback is it ?

    well feedback is pretty important on Ebay and Audiogon and the other auction sites.. but i wouldn't lose sleep over the fact that someone hasn't left feedback for you. I got feedback left for me after three months. I didn't obsess over it.. i left feedback for them... but not everyone is willing to do that in return.

    it is what it is.... and nothing more.

    Feedback is important but not everyone thinks it is. Remember, some of these people sell so much it is hard for them to keep track. I had one guy on audiogon tell me he wouldn't send me my speakers unless I left him great feedback first. Needless to say I replied telling him to go Fu*k himself and I'll take my losses. He finally sent me my item. It goes from being the most important thing in the world to no importance at all. If you are happy with what you receive leave pos feedback, if not, let them know why and see if they fix the problem. We are all looking for different things when buying and selling. What I'm saying is that if the deal goes well, forget about it.

    It really was no big deal until I went to his current auction that has a disclaimer that you must have a numbered feedback to bid.
