I’ve done a bunch of transactions on eBay, both buying and selling with 100% positive results. I only buy and sell domestically and always check feedback and transaction numbers from whom I’m buying. Not that hard. If there’s a whiff of illegitimacy about an item, don’t buy it. The vast majority of sellers are honest. To condemn the entire site because of the comparative few whom are not is ridiculous.
@puptent ,
Why are you blaming eBay for a sellers lousy packaging? Also, cutesy phrases like ’fleecebay’ or ’flea bay’ are neither amusing nor clever. Just a head’s up.
