It is a pain, but it can be done. I always look not only a sellers negs, but at the feedback of the buyer who left them. For instance it took me about 10 minutes to check out JCO before I considered purchasing from him. ;-) Nothing to worry about, mostly losers and newbies.
On new sellers without much of a feedback I always do an "Ask seller a question" and see that the response is prompt, couteous and helpful. Hasn't failed me yet.
