Trusted Sellers List

I'm thinking about making a website on horology, and having a page listing trusted sellers from different forums. Next to their name, would be some sort of rating system (advanced seller, to mid level seller, etc.). Good idea or waste of time?

It would be a PITA to keep updated. A seller's reputation can change very quickly and unexpectedly. I also don't think some sellers may like being rated.

Definitely a good idea, but don't expect to make many friends

As long as it's made clear that TRF doesn't officially endorse any seller, and Trusted Seller is a just a loose term made up by members.

I would need help from the community in gathering a list for each forum.

I think I can rate the sellers based on how many feedbacks they have.

100+
50+
25+
10+

Actually, if a sales goes bad I could get in trouble. I think i'll pass on this idea.
