Feedback is a tool like anything else, and has to be evaluated in the grand scheme of things. I've bought from people who had some negative feedback, but I also take that into consideration with what they are selling and to whom.
Not to mention, if they have a 15,000 feedback rating and have a handful of negatives each month, I consider that a part of doing business - you're never going to have 100% satisfaction when dealing with large numbers. The type of feedback is important, however, so I always go and read what people say in their negative feedback... I also use a credit card and bank account with PayPal. If I have the slightest concern about what I'm buying, or who I'm buying it for, I'll use the credit card. I have found that PayPal can be somewhat putative when placing holds on funds.
