  • It's not possible to change feedback on eBay, but you can add a follow-up comment to elaborate on feedback you've left.
  • You may wish to change eBay feedback if you've made a typo or have either experienced or resolved an issue with the seller since leaving your initial review, but unfortunately it isn't currently possible.
  • However, you can upgrade feedback to neutral or positive if you wish.

When you've purchased something on eBay, it's always helpful to the seller when you leave positive feedback to let other users know that the seller is reliable, timely, and accurately describes their products.

Likewise, it can also be a way to warn others of a fraudulent seller if they don't send the item you bought or you receive something broken, faulty, or completely different than what was described.
