eBay scams

[TigerWare]

Many horror stories and food for thought about auctions/selling or dealing with far off nations here.
I've never had an account on eBay, can't bring myself to trust it. Probably for the best though, I'd be skint in a few days.

Ooo shiny things -->> ????'s

Like ColdSpirit said, always deal with people who have 100% positive feedback. And staying within your own country is a definite good idea.:up:

Buy the odd hard to get DVD off eBay, and on occasion have grabbed something else that was going at a reasonable price. Problem is a few bootlegs are on eBay and seem to doing nothing about it.

Noticed lately on the Downunder one a lot of retailers are selling through eBay so prices suck end of day. Sorry it costs $17 shipment to post an item in my own City

Warning for Aussies buying concert or sports tickets off eBay. The Feds are stepping in to stamp it out and you are not guaranteed admittance to the venue if your ticket is off eBay as a whole bunch of cricket fans found out last year.

A common scam where the product is cheap but the shipping cost is sky high.
