I don't think you can change feedback once entered.

I don't think you can alter the feedback now-but can you e-mail the seller and tell them your problem?
Otherwise you may have to put this down to bitter experience.
Have you contacted e-bay customer help-line for advice they are usually very good.

My advice is to get back in contact with the buyer and explain about the stain, most sellers are nice, understanding and should usually reimburse you if you are not happy.......
Next to the sellers name theres a number and % most good sellers have 100%.
You can click on these to find out what other buyers have put...(im going on arent i)
Hope this helps

you can leave follow up feedback, which will be displayed below your original feedback message.

If there are faults with garments, the seller should make that clear in their description.
Just send them an email saying you've found a stain, it wasn't mentioned in their description and could you have a refund/ price reduction/ whatever? If you're nice about it, they should try and sort the problem for you.
