Is this buyer legit?
how to find out if a buyer is legit? Tons of positive feedback, but next to no followers and one item for sale. Is the feedback listed only for his/her purchases? He/she is very eager to buy and I want to make sure they are legit

When you list an item for sale, you are required to ship the item when the buyer pays. You can't evaluate whether or not you want to complete the sale after the fact.
Buyers don't have followers. Sellers have followers.
What do you mean, "he is very eager to buy?" If a buyer wants to buy, he just does it. If the buyer is suggesting payment outside of eBay checkout, THAT would be a red flag.
The fact that the buyer doesn't have feedback for anything but his own purchases tells you he is either not a seller or an infrequent seller but is a buyer.
