How do you find out whether a domain's been banned by SE's before buying it?

Do a search for it on that SE. DUH!

no way to know for sure ( other than existing serp )

a site can still show up on google , but be penalized

on yahoo penalized sites show up , but it will only index one file from your server ( like index.html it usually shows 2 listings for the same file)

it may show up for blacklist for spamming or something like that.

pr means nothing if you dont use it right. its like saying a cook should know how to fix a car because he has a tool set.
