Is it safe to buy from Audiogon sellers?


Dear audiophiles, 

Is it safe to buy products from audiogon sellers ( person or shop)? I don't want to receive goods contrary to the description on the audiogon web.  Unlike eBay, there seems no guarantee over here? Am I right?  Those who have plenty of buy & sell experience here, pls. kindly give me your advice, My location is fin Far East which is far from U.S.A. Tks.

If I were in the far east I would only buy from a dealer or online store that knew how to get the product to you. 

For example, it can be a PITA to buy and sell even between Canada and the USA (I have done it many times). I can only imagine the surprises in store for a private seller selling to a country that one is not familiar with. I would think a store based outside the USA with an A'gon presence would know the ropes of selling to other countries.
