Can you no longer leave Neg feedback on ebay as a seller?

When I buy, I always leave feedback. It is one way to keep track of the things I have received and things I am still waiting for. I have never asked for anyone to leave feedback, but it is implied that one should leave it. It's also a way that you can tell if things arrived in a timely fashion. Think not leaving feedback is just another indication of the"me" generation. You would think that more than 50% would leave feedback but that has not been my experience.

Ebay has basically de-incentivized feedback. It means nothing at all for a buyer to receive a feedback, since it's impossible for somebody who is strictly a buyer to fall below 100%.

Since it means nothing to them, why should they go out of their way to leave feedback for us?

Not saying it's right, it just is what it is...........and it is what Ebay has made itself into. Don't think it's a sign of the times, just Ebay.
