im pretty sure that most vendors, atleast the large scale ones know not to leave fingerprints, and take certain precautions not to do so.

Yes, a competent vendor takes every precaution to not leave fingerprints, DNA, or anything else that could identify them.  If a package is intercepted by a Postal Inspector, they dust inside and out for prints, and prints on the inside is particularly good evidence against a vendor.  This has been covered in depth in this thread (and many others): dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=346.0

Search the forum for "reverse package profile engineer" or ""reverse package profiling", I think I did a tutorial on it a while back.

Personally I'd like to see this reassurance on a vendors page.  Something like "I use gloves when preparing your shipment" would be nice to see, but I've yet to see a seller say that on their vendor page.

When selecting a vendor, I go with my gut on their intelligence level.  If they sound professional, I'm more likely to use them, because they are more likely to be taking these precautions.

Brings me to another thing, I saw a brand new vendors page today, sounds like a total fucking dumbass.  His page is in all caps, sounds like a wanna-bee gangster idiot, and says if you don't FE he will cancel.  I avoid these idiots like the plague.
