Just saw this on a newer sellers profile:
First two feedbacks I guess the user received as a seller.
System automated reply * recent remark
yippee ki yay
How many times have I seen Amazon sellers demand this sort of thing.
If it is automated – why not make it true. “To the best of our knowledge, this seller successfully completed an order.” Or wait at least thirty days before giving them automatic feedback.
I think they only do this for new sellers…not everyone else.
Update, it looks like it’s no longer for new sellers!
Member since 1998, selling for years, this is on my dashboard:
eBay automated feedback: 23
Mine is 75% automated feedback now.
The number of automated FB shown on my Ebay profile is fluctuating.
Many of my buyers visit Ebay infrequently and leave FB when they do. At the moment I have 100 automated FB within a day or so it may be back down to 90.
Seller opinion on the Ebay forums is mixed about this change, with stronger opinions by its critics.
Since I believe FB is worthless, I see this as lipstick on a pig, intended to improve the appearance of a system which Ebay no longer uses to evaluate the performance of US based sellers. Ebay does use this to evaluate international sellers on Ebay.com as part of its BBE (Bad Buyer Experience) metrics. It is banning listings on .com from international sellers with too much negative FB, untracked shipments, and late shipments - with no possibility of appeal.
I am not seeing that on my dashboard or my profile. Maybe it’s coming soon for me?
Thank you, found it.

Are buyers getting automated seller feedback too?
I should do better at leaving the buyer feedback because I do think it helps to encourage nicer seller feedback. I get more and nicer comments on eBay:
(product is in FBA)
Not sure, but I have auto feedback set up to leave buyer feedback once they leave feedback for me
