Maybe, but zero feedback isn't realy a thing to
rate -
I did a lot of eBay transactions within the last year
(>20) and have still a feedback of Zero - I don't care.
You are right in your assertion that feedback for someone
who is a bidder makes little difference. However, for
a seller (like myself) it is extremely important.
For example, I just had two auctions end tonight in which
my bids for both of the items were about double that
of what is usually realized on ebay for the same identical
items. This happened because I have a perfect feedback
profile and that alone results in higher bids. I have seen
it time and again. My advice to anyone who wishes to sell
repeatedly on eBay is to do whatever it takes to protect
your feedback profile. In my case, it means a policy
of satisfaction or money refunded (and I have rarely
been asked to grant a refund).
