Unfortunately you can be burned anywhere online nowadays, I have had a few badly described vinyls from eBay and Discogs sellers. Depends how badly I think misrepresented as to what I do about it.
Fortunately buyers have most protection on Ebay for sure ( which sucks when you are the seller though ... lol) and if I find a seller starting to get rude and aggressive I just open a case and let eBay deal with it.
However my good experiences far, far outweigh the bad so far, with ever increasing ecommerce there will be an increase in those who are not true enthusiasts and just looking to cash in on the vinyl interest.
If you find a good seller my advice would be to stick with them, I have two "goto" Ebay sellers now and my LRS and that pretty much is enough for me for now.
