| As somebody who buys and sells a bit on Ebay, here's a couple of things I can offer up to ya.
Thing #1 Ebay has millions of users. So, you will meet a bunch of flakes, a gaggle of geeks and more than a few honest ethical people.
Thing #2 Paypal can be quite an asset to you. They cover up to 2000 bucks if you get ripped off and have quite a bit of leverage in dealing with big sellers.
Thing #3 Use common sense and checkout vendors/sellers before risking any big bucks.
Ya know . . .
We live in a purty small world. If'n I needed to, in addition to checking out stuff online, I'd bet I could locate a family member/friend/business or social aquaintance, that could knock on someone's door (even yours) within a day or two of my request.
It may not "take a villiage to raise a child", but my villiage keeps me out of trouble on a regular basis. (As well as providing me with someone to tell me a good story and have a laugh with.)
If you get into an ebay jam . . .Give me a hollar.
Best to ya,
