I have bought from several different people on e-bay, e-bay can be a great way to buy many things or sell many things, and like any other "open market" there both good and bad dealers and buyers. There is never any "guarentee" that you are going to not get screwed. The reward with e-bay is fair market pricing the risk is coming across a bad apple. Caveat Emptor is the watch word do your research.
1, Know what your buying (sounds obvious but this thread is the direct result of this one being ignored.)
2, Set a ceilng on what you are willing to pay. (Watch to see what the fair market value in setting your ceiling check the items in the Auctions Completed section.)
3, Be realistic something for nothing happens only in stories that begins with Once upon a time and end with and the lived happily ever after.
4, Check your sellers history negatives should be read and wieghed.
