Yep, always do. I regard it as a way of letting the seller know that it has arrived in good order rather than sending them an email which they'd have to read. Plus it's surely common courtesy to leave a good report when you're happy with something.

Always leave feedback, if there is a problem i email them and try to resolve before i leave feedback.

If not resolved then feedback left accordingly

I think some ebayers won't leave feedback until they have received good feedback, if you get two similar people you can get a feedback stalemate. Some people can leave it for weeks.

I don't think I've ever failed to leave feedback.

Except you can no longer leave negative feedback for buyers, which I find odd. Buyers can be just as dodgy as sellers.

Another feedback feature I don't understand is one of the seller star rating categories. How can a buyer accept advertised p&p charges when bidding (this is part of the contract) and then have the chance to rate one star for p&p charges when leaving feedback? It simply doesn't make sense. The buyer will always know what the postage is before bidding. I bought a cubby box cheap, simply because it had silly postage charges listed which put people off bidding. But I looked at the total cost ad bid accordingly. I didn't then leave a low rating, because I'd already accepted the charges.

i've only ever bought off ebay never sold, i almost always leave feedback straightaway and always give the seller chance to sort out any niggles...

i think in the 5 or 6 years i've used ebay (might be longer) i've only left 3 or 4 bad feedbacks and only where the seller has genuinely deserved it, but as a buyer i've had sellers ignore the feedback feature loads of times, i should probably be up around 150 by now but only have 73 and only ever once had bad given to me, a proper d*ck that took about 4 weeks to post my dremel kit to me after i had to chase him up twice by phone and threaten to go to collect and charge him for my costs and time to get his butt moving
it ain't broke ...

i ain't fixed it enough

Never sold there....

Always leave feedback and hassle remind, by email those that don't!  Has always worked for me.

Have been caught out once though, when I did a deal for some rims, and they were cr4p.  Always make sure you are paying the advertiser, not an apparent relation, as it's almost impossible to get the money back through the small claims procedure as they can deny living at that address and the court paperwork cannot be served.

couldnt agree more.. i've got one at the moment, i stated cash on collection, he emailed me asking if he could sort a courier out.. so i said yes, but add 10% to cover paypal & my b*ggering about.... one month later its still not collected! (but paid for?!!)

I always leave good feedbback if i can, If someones been particulaly nice (given me a fiver for a 99p giveaway!) I'll give them all the glory I can!

lot of muppets on ebay now, really annoys me!
