I have a couple of accounts is TRS status. All it takes is to sell good quality items at a fair price and ship quickly.
Being a TRS might help a little in keeping an account, but that does NOT mean that you can just sell anything you want. Start selling lots of foo-foo items and you will lose the account TRS or not.
The example you cited above is an account waiting for closure. Don't believe me? Watch that seller. Check back in 2 weeks, 1 month and 2 months. By then, the accouint will be history. What this person is doing is not smart. They will get away with it for awhile, but not for any length of time.
Most people's sales are down due to the economy. Some sellers, even long time ones, are turning to this to try to make some more money. So this person could have great feedback and a ton of past sales. But eBay will catch on.
