But, as you also said, Ebay has the traffic, 75% of which are buyers, and too many of those are also there to scam, and are in many ways protected and even encouraged by Ebay policies. It's a lot like walking down the street in a mixed neighborhood of good folks and bad, as long as you stay completely alert and keep your guard up, you stand a chance of getting through it unscathed, because the ones looking to scam are actively watching for the weak, the unprotected, the vulnerable few whom they can easily take
I wish I could give MULTIPLE thanks for this post Bear! It is way too hard to do anything with eBay. I even get screwed on small items, I certainly am not going to throw away an expensive item on eBay. The predators lie in wait for the expensive items.
