But, also, most items have a look and return policy at ebay. Where you can buy it, get it checked out, and if it is not up to snuff, return it. Also you can return defective items within a certain time period. And there is fraud protection thru paypal.

But with all that said, I would still not buy there. I would buy from a mass merchandiser for a cheap price before going to e-bay. But the others are right about one thing for sure. It sure is nice to buy local, and have service after the sale.

God bless
