I only buy from eBay when someone has a store. Once that didn't work out either. I bought some welding supplies from an eBay seller. Each was a BIN transaction. When I finished I realized that I could be subject to separate shipping for each item from the same person. So I contacted them through eBay messaging and told them which item #'s I had purchased and asked them to put them all in one box. Little stuff like tips. Then I realized I needed even one more item, so I called the folks in TN or somewhere and went through it again and asked if I could add something else.

They verified my CC and said it was done. I got the stuff and my CC was billed. Along comes eBay and tells me I have an invoice that I haven't paid. We went round and round until I wrote the nastiest profane laden email I have ever written telling them I would be so delighted it they banned me forever and took me to collections and court.

Never heard a word back. Still in good standing.

I would never buy anything from an individual on suckBay. I throw stuff in the trash before I will sell it on flushBay. I tried selling some parts here on PPPFS and got rid of most of it. Just threw some new SC brake pads in the trash after no bites for a month and a half.

Good enough for me.
