Sometime in mid-May, the conversations behind each sale on eBay will become a lot more one-sided. The site will change one of its core features, the feedback system allowing buyers and sellers to judge one another, by cutting sellers out of part of that back-and-forth. Buyers will still be able to give a thumbs-down to a seller, in the form of a negative or neutral feedback rating — but the new rules will block sellers from returning the favor.

Why would E-Bay not want sellers to rate buyers? What if someone skips out on the bill after an item has been shipped? Not a great idea to do this.
I agree, it doesn't make ANY sense whatsoever to allow buyers to rates sellers but not the other way. It just doesn't make any logical sense.
I have noticed that a lot of sellers tell buyers that they will not rate the buyer until the buyer rates the seller and if a negative rating is left for the seller they will give the buyer a negative rating too. This leads to a lot of buyers not leaving feedback about a seller because they don't want a negative rating affecting their score.
