[QUOTE="dave92029, post: 1046263, member: 26916"]One Big advantage to eBay is their guaranty of satisfaction. When purchasing on the internet, even with great photos of the item to be purchased, and dealing with folks who have good reputations and excellent feedback...things change. I used to have several rental properties. I would check people's credit, interview them in person, but sh** happens to cause a good person to become financially unreliable. A few months ago I won eBay auctions for 3 rolls (60 oz) of 2010 ASE. I exchanged emails with the seller concerning combining the shipping for the three rolls, and reducing the S&H. All went well. I sent the funds via PayPal - $1266. After a few days i requested trackng info on the shipment. No response. In total, I sent five emails concerning tracking info. Silence. After about ten days I contacted eBay and reported that the goods had not been delivered. The eBay seller had been selling many ASE rolls. The last time I checked there was 14 others who had left negative feedback and had been stiffed on ASE rolls. Two weeks after filing my report on eBay I received a full refund for the $1266 from eBay. The ebay guaranty makes me feel very comfortable in purchasing on eBay. I have had approximately 300 eBay transactions and only this unresolved issue that eBay corrected immediately. Doing business, out of state, via the internet, can cause problems in resolving disputes. Even reputable dealers will have some unsatisfied customers. Having eBay on the buyer's side is a powerful plus when buying on the internet.[/QUOTE]
