How To Change Feedback on ebay 2025 Easily

Your feedback profile tallies everything: positive, neutral, and negative ratings broken out by the last 1, 6, and 12 months, plus a separate box for detailed seller ratings once you've crossed 10 of them. The number that matters most for this guide sits just above the feedback table: "Feedback revision requests available," a counter showing how many you have left to send. eBay caps this at 5 per calendar year, plus 5 more for every 1,000 feedback ratings received that year, so check the counter before assuming you can ask again on the next order.

eBay's help documentation lists what appears on any member's feedback profile: overall score, percentage positive, recent comments and photos, detailed seller ratings, and the date they registered. It's the same page whether you're checking your own history or a seller's before buying from them. One detail: reach a feedback score of 10 and you get a colored star badge, climbing to a silver shooting star past a million, which is eBay's shorthand for how established an account is.

If a seller resolves an issue after you've already left feedback, they can send a formal revision request instead of just messaging you directly. It arrives by email with a link, and you have two options: revise the star rating and comment you originally left, or decline and keep it as is.

If you revise it, your original comment becomes invisible and is replaced by the new one. You're not obligated to change anything, but if the seller genuinely fixed the problem (reshipped an item, issued a refund, cleared up a mix-up), updating the feedback keeps your own history accurate. If you take no action, eBay sends a reminder after 7 days and closes the request after 10 with no change made.

Send this from Seller Hub > Orders > Feedback: find the order tied to the rating you want revisited and select Request Feedback Revision. You can also start it from your own feedback profile by selecting Request a feedback revision and picking the order from there. eBay only allows a request on feedback that's less than 30 days old, so this only works if you act fairly soon after the rating goes up. It also only makes sense once you've resolved whatever prompted the negative or neutral rating; sending a request before the issue is fixed spends one of your limited requests and rarely changes the buyer's mind.

The flip side of revision requests is feedback you haven't left yet. My eBay's Purchases tab filters orders by status, and one of those filters is "Ready for feedback," a quick way to see which completed orders are still waiting on your review. Clearing this out regularly means you're less likely to leave a rushed, low-effort rating days later that you end up wanting to revise.
