NR rated buyers with very old accounts?

I have an auction going with a NR bidder with an account that was established 3/30/2013. I find extremely strange that a person could be a member here for nearly a decade, never buy anything and receive feedback, and never sell anything and receive feedback. Either the individual has done no business or has done something and never received feedback. Am I overthinking this? I have been putting off listing this gun for a very long time and just want to get it done. I really don't feel like going through the whole relisting, dispute, fees, etc. Should I block the bidder or what?

I think feedback expires if you don't transact after a while? I wouldn't worry too much.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Sell it.
Wow, I never thought about that. OK, we'll see how it goes. I'll try to remember to post here so others can see what happens, lol. Thank you for helping me.
I don't think that the feedback ever expires, only the ability to view the item that they bid on. I'd guess that I've only had about 60-75% feedback postings as a buyer, or a seller. I currently have just over 400 feed back ratings, but have bought/sold close to 700 items on the auction side. Just remember, everyone starts out at an NR rating. Good luck with your sale.
You could also post up the auction number here and maybe one of us rube's will outbid him! Shameless plugs for your auctions are allowed!
I've been a member here since 2003, rarely commenting, but daily following those who do. I have made 1 purchase in that time, an M1A, shipped promptly from Rhode Island, and the feedback was A+ on both sides.
At the end of the day, its still a buyer with zero feedback. That’s all you know for sure.
I just got one that was an F- in 2017 and now he will be F--x2 in 2022. No nothing from the "buYER" Hope GB rubs him out this time. Gets old.
Life goes through phases. Right now, I am in the "I have all the guns I need phase". When I win the Powerball lottery, I will be in the "I'm going to buy all the guns I want" phase.
Don't worry; everything will work out for you.

Wonder what SIRI could tell us about this NR guy????
“Hey Siri, find me a bidder with an old account and zero feedback”
