Most times you can get a feel for sellers by looking at other items they have for sale, feedback and the way they describe things. I have bought a bunch of things from very low feedback sellers and have rarely (knock on wood) had an isssue. Sometimes I don't like something about what I see and pass on it. After 14 yrs on ebay you start to get a feel....

+1. I've gotten lots of great items off ebay with sellers with very few transactions. In maybe 5000 deals I have only gotten screwed once. Where I worked before I retired we had an unoriginal comment that came up constantly. "You gotta read between the lines!" It's true. You can read between the lines. Lots of times there are things unspoken you can see.
