I know some people might think this isn't a good suggestion, but if you think
about it, how many of us actually leave a personalized feedback? Whenever I look
at feedback that a seller has given, it's usually all the exact same and
usually goes like, "Wonderful buyer, thank you for using our store". I think
an automated feedback system would be nice, especially for the larger sellers
and buyers.

  Please don't blame me for bringing up the following suggestion, it might
be a sensitive issue. I don't know if this suggestion has been done before.

I am one of the dealers (both buying asnd selling requently) very slow or even
not giving feedback. The problem is lack of time. We used to give FB once a month
and it took me 1-2 hours. I know, feedback is important and yes, I should give
feedback.But I simply have a lack of time. It looks something done very quickly-
but with many orders it adds up. And there is allways soo much else to do. I
know, I am sorry...


I am mild in my feedbacks as a frequent buyer and seller and 99% are positive.I
give my feedbacks in batch and I paste-copy the comment.

So my proposal is as follows: Most buyers and sellers are mild as well and giving
neutral or negative feedbacks will be done immediately. So most feedbacks will
be positive and have the same message.

Yes I agree, my idea is that it should be an option that can be turned on/off
and also leaves the possibility to give it manually. So only if it is not done
manually and the option is turned on it will be done automatically after a certain
period.
  
  
Wouldn't it be an idea to have the possibility for AUTOMATIC feedback after
say 2/3 weeks (that can be turned on/off) being 'positive' and a fixed
message? (that can be set by the member)

Of course with the possibility to give 'manual' feedback in those cases
it is required. So only filling in the 'gaps'

And if this goes too far: won't it a good idea to have the possibility to
add a fixed comment in making batch positive feedbacks? It is quite dull work
to copy-paste the same comment 300 times. It would make it at least 65% faster.

For those now spending hours giving all the same FB's it will be a relief
and for those now not giving FB's (including me) it will take away feeling
guilty about this.

For buyers and sellers often not getting the FB's they want it will also
be a great.

And in general it will give a better picture of the proportions. Neutral and
negative feedbacks will allways be given. Getting all the positive feedbacks
will bring a better balance in the FB rate.

Yes I think options to have feedback automated for sellers would make a lot of
sense. I think with ebay you can set it so that feedback is automatically left
when payment is received or when feedback is left for the seller which is the
option I use on ebay but I think feedback from buyers should be left as manual
as their opinions can vary and should be a more personal note about the transaction
even if many do just say “Thanks” 

Not one that won't get you barked at, but the easiest solution is to have
a "friend" make the order for you and either pay the BL fee on it, or I guess
you could cancel the order and not relist the parts if that would stop the BL
fee.

People will be quick to call out that having multiple accounts isn't allowed
hence why you need a "friend" to do it, but it's baffling that this doesn't
have a real solution by now. Going through your inventory manually adjusting
counts is absurd.
