Why use feedback?

As eBay auctions are publically available where you are buying or selling items from people you have never met (and are likely to never meet) there is a need to be able to highlight the users that are trustworthy, along with those that are not. Leaving a good descriptive feedback message can help other buyers and sellers steer clear of an eBay user you've had problems with, similarly leaving a message when you've dealt with a good eBay user will let other people know that this user is reliable.
