  Stores should also be penalized for not leaving feedback.

Would you not then penalize buyers as well? How would the "penalty" work? You
can't just auto deduct "points" if someone doesn't give a rating as that
would adversely affect the numbers

Yes you can, the transaction includes leaving feedback. It's harder to penalize
a buyer but you can. Thou since you don't leave feedback on certain other
sites not everyone understands leaving it as a buyer, but sellers know better.

I'm not against this, just always try to reference it from both sides.

So then as a seller who wants to make sure that everything is complete and the
buyer is satisfied, do you force them to leave their feedback before any notification
or remark from the buyer?

There have been numerous discussions here about "who should leave feedback first"
and we don't need to spawn that again, but just a consideration. I personally
leave after I've shipped just to be down with it, but can understand from
both sides if you get a buyer that then doesn't respond until after 30 days
and I can no longer modify if it goes south. For me I only sell domestically
right now as well so that plays a part, but there is good points to go either
direction. If/when I get comfortable or big enough to go international, I might
wait longer to post for those sales as they are longer delivery times and could
run into problems at a longer time frame.

Then you have to say "What is the time frame for the penalty?" Is it 30 days,
90 days? If it's too long for larger seller who get 10s or 100s of orders
over that time, would they even remember everything or would it just be form
posting like today? Just food for thought.

It can be that at the 6 month purge if neither side leaves feedback both get
neutral with a note that it was an automated feedback left by the system. But
if a seller is too busy to leave feedback in a timely manner you need a better
system or more help. The transaction isn't complete until feedback is left
by both sides. Currently I have left 330 feedbacks but only have 322 in return
all as a buyer. I did my part but some didn't. I am not OCD about it, but
to see all the importance seller's put on getting positive feedback it would
be nice for them all to back it up.
