There is no way to completely eliminate the possibility of an unpaid item otherwise.
You can block bids from users with a primary shipping address in a location you do not ship to, but there are ways around that. And you cannot preemptively block users based on feedback number, other than preventing additional bids or purchases after the first transaction.
You can take steps to minimize the likelihood of an unpaid auction or offer by setting the strictest possible Buyer Requirements, but a sufficiently determined non-payer can always get around your defenses unless you used fixed price with immediate payment required.
