That's an incredibly stupid question.

It's my personal choice to not deal with someone that has 0 feedback, a lot of folks would disagree with that but I got burned twice and both times were by 0 feedback members when I first joined here. If they had paid the little $1 fee they have something invested in it, then I would deal with 0 feedback members. I'll still list either way as I plan to keep my supporter badge, whether I list 200 items a year or 0. This site has provided me YEARS of entertainment and a streamlined way to find the deals I'm looking for. Whatever you choose Okuma Okuma I'll back you.

Took me five years and a handful of items sold to get my first feedback. If they communicate well, it wouldn’t bother me to give them a shot.

It's a your mileage may vary situation for sure. Someone here gave me that first chance to get my feedback, and I've only declined one offer from someone with 0 who wanted me to ship since then. The first time I drove 50 miles and got a no show, the 2nd time I waited an hour and got a hey I can't come, meet tomorrow, and then the next day was a no show, left a real bad taste in my mouth. I'm just thinking if they had to invest something in it, whether that be $1 or tacos, people would be less likely to back out or simply not show up.

I've had better success with 0 to low FB than some with 30-50 FB, but I treat everybody the same, unless shipping.
Stupid is as stupid does. lol
