If a buyer on eBay wants to screw you by concocting a story - there is likely little you can do, and the odds eBay stands behind the buyer and not you are fairly high. That's just how they roll anymore.

Can you change your settings so as to block potential bidders / buyers with less than a certain feedback rating? I want to say you could do this on eBay in the past, but I have no clue anymore. Have not sold there regularly in quite some time. I would not be surprised if this option is gone now. They do seem to be increasingly less supportive of sellers, especially as it relates to collectibles.
