It doesn't but if I get my coin why should I leave a negative because
it was slow?
Aggravating but if I get my coin, that is what I wanted in the first
place and would have bid
even if the auction said wait 30 days which it didn't.

How does not leaving any feedback penalize somebody? I don't see
where it would even show up. Enlighten me please.

alls well that ends well and I will leave a positive.

In such a case, I would not leave any feedback.

My feedback system is as follows:

Positive = Normal, Successful transaction
No Feedback = Something went wrong, but transaction completed
Neutral = You are an idiot
Negative = I declare war on you and your family

I almost never make it to "Neutral", but I skip feedback for a small
percentage of transactions.

sounds like a negative rating is jihad!

So, as a seller, I leave positive feedback when paid
in my mind, the buyer has completed their obligation in the transaction
and I belive the buyer deserves this.

Am I being naive by doing this or are other sellers being paranoid by not
leaving feedback until feedback is posted for them.

This discussion comes up every so often and the RCC crowd seems to have
numerous people on both sides of the argument.

I, personally, post positive feedback when I receive payment - because I
consider the buyer's obligation complete at that point.

However, others argue that the transaction is incomplete until the buyer
has received the item and indicated they are happy with it.

My advice: Do what you're comfortable with - and don't worry too much
about it.

If it were me I'd only leave a positive after I seen the coin in my hand and
it pretty well matched the sellers description. Because what if you leave a
positive before you actually see the coin and it turns out to be something
totally different when you get it?

I used to agree.

Right. I got screwed by a buyer, I think (golf balls, not coins), who
claimed he didn't get the box of 7 golf balls, after I had left positive
feedback (because he paid). So I had to send out another box. The
messages the guy sent weren't all that convincing and I'm pretty sure he
got two boxes for the price of one. I would have left a neg of "package
lost, had to ship a replacement" if I still had the chance but I
couldn't. A neg like that, not a warning sign. 4 or 5? Yeah.

about it.

Yup. With "coin people" I haven't had any problems.

Sheesh. That should read "7 dozen".
