As a seller, I
think that it's completely illogical to leave feedback for
someone before the transaction is over. It's generally not safe to
assume that the party on the buying (or selling end for that matter[0])
is completely reasonable. This is ebay, not civilized society. :)
I have suggested before that E-bay should keep feedback (from either
party) secret until both parties have submitted their feedback, and only
then reveal it. It would help to stop the 'you left me a -ve, so I'm
leaving you one' type of activity.
I think this is a great idea too. But somehow eBay never figures this out.
