I recently sold a 25.00 Dillard's gift card on Ebay. The auction ended a few days ago. The day it ended, I received payment via Paypal and the item was shipped out. Last night I received a message from the buyer that read as such:
i need my feedback and when i resive the card
Ok, so I'm inerpreting this as "Hi, I was wondering if the item has been shipped so I can estimate when to expect it. Also, when will feedback be left?" Therefore, I replied with:
You should be receiving the gift card very soon. Once you have received, please leave positive feedback for me, and in turn feedback will be left for you.
Thanks
Now, all is well... until this afternoon when I check Ebay again:
no i need my feedback first the pasment good so i need my feedback and im not goona give you feedback until you give me feedback and if you not gonna give me positive very soon you resive the - feedback from me and i dont care you can put - but if you give me + and everything is good on card you resive + after i resive the card
Ok, so I used to advocate giving feedback as soon as payment was received. But I quickly learned that that method leaves you very vulnerable to pissed buyers. Like this guy. Thoughts?
