Leaving feedback for buyers

Leaving feedback for your buyers is a great way to say thank you. We recommend you leave feedback as soon as they’ve paid—they’ll be more likely to leave prompt feedback for you in return. 

As a seller, you can only leave positive feedback for buyers. This aligns with industry standards, as businesses do not typically have the option to leave a public review of their customers. You can leave feedback for up to 90 days from when the transaction was completed.

If you think a buyer has breached any of our policies, please report a buyer - opens in new window or tab to let us know. Bear in mind that leaving a positive feedback rating with a negative comment can cause confusion for other members and will therefore be removed.

How to leave feedback for buyers

Follow these steps to leave feedback: 

  1. In Seller Hub - opens in new window or tab or My eBay - opens in new window or tab, navigate to Selling, then Orders.
  2. Choose the item(s), then select Leave feedback.
  3. Select Positive, enter a comment, then Leave feedback.

Tip
If you think feedback you received goes against our Feedback policy, you can request removal through Seller Help - opens in new window or tab.
