i want something of ebay, but buyer has 4 feedbacks, 1 of which is negative,

but only he is selling the item .......advise needed.

or should i wait, until the item is for sale, by another seller? (it is rare though )

    Link us to the item and maybe we could advise, otherwise take a gamble...

    The plus side is that in these cases the negative might be putting people off and fewer bidders can equal lower prices.

    What you need to do is read what the negative says and look at the feedback for the buyer that left it. That often makes it much easier to make a decision.
