Look at my trading score on here as an example. I've done way more than 40 transactions.

Up until recently I had no idea sellers were expected to give feedback. This is primarily a buyer's tool - not much a seller can say besides maybe the buyer didn't take too long to pay

I think some people think of giving feedback as more like a chore so they avoid it. If I buy something on ebay and am extraordinarily impressed by how quickly I got it I'll make an effort to log on and give some positive feedback. Likewise, if someone stiffs me or gives me the runaround you'd better believe I'm leaving feedback and it won't be positive

Generally, though, I likely won't make the effort.

I see it the other way. Buyers should be all up for giving feedback on the sellers. It's our reputation on the line so if we have negative feedback, guess what, I'm not going to be able to sell much. Buyers don't have to do much besides not be a jerk, lol.

Putting in work to get more info for my big S WK 221 project, morning work break almost over. I'll take that trade-off all day - my lunch break for the ability to interview a co-worker to help get this project moving.

My eBay feedback is only at 88 and it should be over 200. I sell more than I buy, so it’s all buyers just receiving the product and not wanting to log back on to leave feedback. It’s a laziness thing.

Typically, as a seller, I don’t leave feedback until the buyer does. Sure, I could leave feedback immediately about them paying fast, but what if there’s an issue with the item once they receive it that needs to be resolved? That’s why I wait to see what the buyer says once they receive it before I leave feedback.

Then the buyer just never leaves feedback lol.

Yeah, feedback drives me insane. On eBay I usually wait until the person has received the package when selling and once I've received my item as a buyer. Same here, but I make a point of asking the seller/trader to leave feedback once I have. Public disclaimer: Not a knock against anyone here. Opinions are like *******s.

Unfortunately social media makes you realize how much some of them really stink. I'm always amazed how many wusses there are out there. I at least respect those who give their honest opinions. I might not always like it, but at least I know it isn't the same regurgitated troll spew. C'mon kids, bring something original to your arguments

Yeah, I'm really digging this one. Of course it is a limited run. Hopefully it gets enough momentum to come back permanently.

On a side note. Soooo...a registered sex offender was one of the people who looked at our house. Long story short. He was the contractor for one of the interested buyers. We didn't know any of this until he started giving our broker grief with threatening phone calls. Apparently he didn't like that we weren't listing the house to the open market. Based on this and what my wife told me, I'm just glad I wasn't here. I would have shut him down quickly. She has better temperament and held her own.

Superman calls his place up north his Fortress of Solitude, and I call my bathroom my Fortress of Solitude. Does that mean that when I drop a deuce, I’m Superman?

Superman II?

FarCry 5 has been great so far. Some of the characters that send you on missions are borderline Alex Jones level funny. Never did I expect to hear about the controlled collapse of building 7, in a video game...but there it is.

A good watch. Problem is, we're a reactive species instead of proactive one. We're easy to judge, label and wallow in our own hypocrisy while we do it. I love this scene from MIB. Because it is so true. I use it when some of my friends need a wake up call about how it is now compared to when they were younger. Sorry folks, nothing has evolved but technology
