I haven't sold on there for a while, but it sounds much worse than it used to be. Can't you filter by number of positive reviews?

Worth pointing out two things:

- Sellers cannot leave negative feedback on buyers

- A common fraud technique is for a scammer to take over the account of someone with a good history (i.e., hack into it)

Not very well. I wish I could restrict my items to users with 50+ feedback, but I think Ebay fears everyone would do that.
