Over the past year, almost 25% of sales on this venue (EBAY) , were purchases that buyers made through smart phones, tablets, and laptops w/ mobile technology, etc. , and not regular old computers (information gleaned from Ebay newsletter)
And over 40% of buyers have not, or did not leave any feedback in this same time frame. (information gleaned from Seller Dashboard)
For me that's about 400 items that I never rec'd feedback on. (some were 'package deals" so this is taken into account )
Is a trend developing ?
I know the feedback used to be important, but it's not as effective , and so it's not as useful.
Fewer buyers seem to leave feedback, and Im wondering if this correlates with "us" being so mobile now.

Although I leave feedback for all my purchases, I don't do it on my tablets - personally I hate typing on them. Typing nearly 100WPM, and tablet-touching probably 20, I find it a PITA between speed, auto-correct, ability to edit better, etc. I just wait until I'm at the PC to do it. I can see others in similar situations who don't get to a PC as frequently perhaps just not bothering.

Tough to tell whether that is a good or bad thing in the ever changing circus of seller discounts.
just saying
