My 8 year average is 50%. Watch it over time. See how it trends. If you get 90%, that's fine. 50% is good too. Once you get into the thousands of comments it becomes "less important" to get everyone to leave feedback. I can understand wanting every feedback as a newcomer, but be patient, your numbers will grow.
that depends on your score
if a buyer is satisfied from a seller who got lets say 25 points then he will do in favour give the seller feedback because he/she is pleased or just simply to get 1 in return.
with a 1000+ seller then they think perhaps i have already bought from him/her in the past, so my score wont increase if i get feedback from him/her, so why leave it? if they are satisfied they might, the 50/50 situation, but if theres 1 thing they dont like about transaction ( i.e. so many checkout pages to pay for your item for instance or shipping took long, or some other minor detail ) then they would prob. not leave feedback
and most buyer dont want to recieve neutral/negative back when they are dissatisfied, so they simply won't leave anything at all
