Was Audiogon bought by Ebay? EBay has no guarantee - none - and it is full of weasel sellers. I buy a lot of books on EBay but nothing that is mechanical. I've had too many screwings from them to ever buy anything over a couple hundred dollars there. The cons are out in force right now - they need to eat, too, and this is banquet time for them.
