Some ebay sellers have automated feedback responses when items are paid for. Not sure if this is what CS does, but I know other sellers do have this.
As a seller, I also leave feedback when items are paid for. Personally, I would not prefer to do this as I think it's better for a seller to leave feedback until after a buyer leaves feedback. The reason is that the buyer may be very difficult such as wanting to return an item even if it were described perfectly with all the large scans needed. Or there may be a credit card chargeback which has happened a couple of times to me. Basically, there can be difficult situations that can arise even after the item has been shipped and delivered.
However, on ebay, you cannot leave negative feedback for buyers. So since you can't do this anyway, what's the point of waiting for feedback from buyers? Better just to leave a generic feedback when they pay and move on. I think this is why ebay does not allow negative feedback to buyers. They don't want to buyers to be afraid to purchase items since they may receive negative feedback which would contribute to a poor shopping experience.
