To think there is absolutely no point in buyer feedback on ebay?

Whats the point in leaving a buyer feedback if you can only leave them good feed back?

Because then they will leave you some in return. Some sellers wont sell to people with not much feedback...or none...so the more I get, the more confident sellers feel. I won't leave it unless the person I have bought from does.

I can see that side of it, but as a seller, its not really a very good feedback tool, as no one looks at your feedback and thinks i wonder how many feedback theyre missing because theyre crap buyers.

No but I look at your feedback before I buy and will buy on the basis that what you do have is good. I'm not thinking about the people who didn't leave any!

I have just pressed the good feedback button and left bad feedback before for non payers.

I must say...I once went on the ebay forum for advice about a crappy quality tutu I bought and I was jumped on by a load of sellers who all said things like "It only cost X amount...what do you expect!" and things.

But it was a new one! From a supplier of dance wear and I felt there was a lot of resentment towards the buyers.

You should be able to leave negative feedback for buyers.

I thought that today too. I pressed good then said it would've been great if 5 of the screws had been the right ones (new flat pack).
