Avoiding Retaliatory Negative Feedback

I am sure many new Sellers are dying to leave negative feedback on their first joybidders. Well, do you know that we have a xx-day grace period to leave a feedback on our trading partner?

If you leave a negative feedback on your trading partner, be prepared to receive one from him too. It does not matter who is right or who is wrong. If a deal is not closed successfully, and you feel it justifies your negative feedback, then you can expect the same because nobody will admit his own mistakes, whether by accident or design.

Experienced Sellers, however, will send the necessary email to the administrators and file a non-paying-bid report and will always wait for the last minute to place a negative feedback to avoid a retaliation for the truant Buyer. Of course, the Seller has way before already blocked his Buyer from further bidding on his auction items.

That sure solves a lot of headache, doesn't it?
