Do you trust Audiogon?

Recently, I came close to purchasing a five-figure item on Audiogon.  After quickly agreeing on a price, the seller did several things that caused me concern.  Some of them involved proposed violations of banking laws, and others were clear violations of Audiogon's own regulations.  I realized that this wasn't someone I should trust, and I might be receiving a box of rocks or a broken item, and I'd never again hear from the seller.  I killed the deal and reported this to Audiogon.  To my amazement, the seller's account and his listing are intact.
How does this protect honest buyers from predators?

I do trust audiogon , and i like the discussions, but i never, ever pay with Paypal. If i wanna buy something and it’is only with Paypal, they always write:no shipments to Belgium. The reason is that too much fraud happend. The most honest way is.: make a deal, give your bank card number and after the amount is on your account and send the  package. Also request all data from the buyer. (Your data may also not be missing).
