"FE Will Update" is better than nothing, here's why...

EDIT: This is mainly directed at Agora.

There is so much hate for those who FE and rate "5/5 Will Update when product received"...

Yes, if these ratings reviews are not ever updated it is annoying. However when people do this, I am able to look at a vendor's page and see how many people have FE'd and get a sense of whether or not packs are coming through. A page full of such posts screams scammer, and alerts me to avoid said vendor.

I recently avoided getting scammed for this very reason.

So perhaps there's a better way to alert the community that you've placed an order and have FE'd, but have yet to receive anything. Something as simple as "FE buyer - awaiting package - community player." would be a slight variation, but could be used by those who actually intent on following through with a proper review once product is received or not received.

Bottom line is that there is some inherent value (even if slight) in "FE will update" posts despite what people have been saying...

You get points for trying to polish a turd, I guess.

On the other hand, if buyers do leave Feedback, "5/5 Will Update when product received", and they don't get their package, then it's likely they would be angry enough to go back and update their feedback.

Just don't FE and pay the extra $50 or so for insurance. You also don't have to write the review as soon as you finalize.

sure, but you are ignoring the occasions when people say that on markets where you can't edit the post.

"FE will update" Receives MXE Thinks I should test this out and then update my feedback." Sniff 2 grams later "Was there something I was supposed to do?"

"FE will update when I receive" should mean "FE will update before I test product."
