yes. you should be very nervous. my rule is never buy anything on ebay from anyone with less than 98% positive feedback.

people buy/build feedback easily now... ebay screws sellers over most often..

Buy with a credit card, and sit back... no credit card will make you pay for something you never received!

I have 950+ feedback and it was 100% positive until this month when people screwed me over for no reason (sellers have no recourse whatsoever)

Paypal also pulls funds and screws you, I really love ebay, but hate it just as much if not more.

Yea, I usually don't buy unless they have over 98% positive. Ebay buyer protection is really good though. They got me my money back on a purchase that I never received.
