i have never purchased anything off ebay . infact never even brought their site up on my screen .
things you are buying can be trusted to be in good shape ?
They have every single possible item that you could ever want to buy...and all the ones you'd NEVER want to.
Just go look.
Ebay has a built in feedback meter. So if someone is a bad seller or buyer the feedback lets you know.
If someone has 900 feedback and no negative responses then they're a top notch seller... No problems get item in 3 days, etc.
But most negative feedback wasn't warranted either... Sometimes the seller didn't read the auction right and still gives negative feedback.
Regardless, Bought well over 1000 items on ebay in my life... Had only a few problems that were all straightened out. You'll have problems with every seller whether it's some guy on ebay or it's wal-mart.
Almost every seller takes credit cards through paypal. Ebay is the best place to buy anything.
