Two thoughts come to mind.

You could get someone you know who has a higher feedback help you out.

Or, you could buy some stuff to get your feedback started, and then put your
items up. You probably don't need to get more than 3 or 4 feedbacks before
you start to look legit. Also, make sure you wait out the month of having a
sunglasses icon. A quality posting will also help- make sure you have good
clear pictures, and lots of information about what you're selling. Nothing
turns me off more that a posting with just the name of the item and a poorly
lit out of focus picture.

Many (if not most) of my orders have
been from the small handful sellers that I keep going back to because

(at least to me) that I’m starting to get stung more and more.


Here's a different perspective:
I recently received somewhat of a windfall - a number of older sets, mostly
from themes I have no interest in.  I want to sell them on Bricklink to
support my other Lego purchases.  Being a first-time seller, how can I get
full value for these items?

If I were buying something, I suppose I would rather deal with someone with
1000 instances of positive feedback than someone "unknown."  Still, it doesn't
sit well knowing I probably won't be able to sell these items at the same
price as someone with tons of feedback.  I don't plan on becoming a regular
seller, so building up positive feedback through selling these items at a
cut price isn't much consolation.
