Regards,
Found a partial solution. Go to Buyer Requirements when you are creating your listing or change it in your site preferences, checkmark the "Have bid on or bought my items within the last 10 days and met my limit...." change it to "1" and then change the value for "only apply this block...." to "0" and this will make anyone who has a feedback of zero to only make or win/bid 1 at a time. Now, I know its not a total block, but its the closest thing there is on Ebay and at least this will make someone out to harm you with a fake account because you blocked them or they are a competitor to only do this on one of your items, not all of them. Also check mark the "Dont Have A Paypal Account" They can still pay for it by credit card through Paypal but this will give you all the real vitals if the person pays. If they are out to get you then you can cross reference to see if that name appears anywhere else on your Paypal transactions with a different Ebay name and if there is a match then call ebay and they will get off the negative because you cant have 2 Ebay accounts and it will seem that the account was made just to cause harm. This is my setup below and I get very few problems.
Hope this helps

That is not true. I have 3 eBay accounts. I can buy different type items on different accounts.
@theleato We've had close to 20 (0) Buyers in the recent past, whether they were new Buyers or Guest Buyers the bottomline is they were Buyers and shortly after their purchase they were (1) because I leave Buyer FB while the label is printing out.
We have not been scammed very often because of what we sell but on those rare occasions the Buyers have all had FB a lot higher then (0).
Our largest sale on record was from a (0) Buyer
All new IDs start at (0)
(0) Buyers can mean MORE people are signing up to Buy on the eBay venue and THAT is a good thing.
While I have some very strong opinions about the unbalanced FB system, at the end of the day its the system we're stuck with but to simply block all (0) makes no sense at all and I don't agree with wanting to do it ... if eBay were to change their system then things might be different ...
I completely understand the concern on high scam items but if Sellers know ahead of time they are listing one of those then they should consider other alternatives for moving high scam items ...
