Question Ebay feedback - Help

So I am looking at buying some tyres off Ebay at the moment. The seller has a feedback count of over 2000 with 100% positive. All good you might say but the problem is almost all of them are private listings so you can't see what auctions the feedback was left for. This goes back as far as 2004.

Now here is the thing that has me thinking, when you open the feedback for those that have left this seller feedback, that auction is not listed in their feedback if you know what I mean.

Is there a way for someone to dodgy up their feedback so it appears their feedback is better than it actually is?

I reckon it will be legit, lots of sellers make all their sales private for many reasons, could be done dodgy but to the tune of 2000+ feedbacks, highly unlikely!

I think you will be fine. Pay with paypal so you get the 'buyer protection' that is included.
