I have yet to have a bad experience as a buyer. I only had one as a seller, when the winning bidder had their account revoked. If in doubt, always pay via Paypal because they will protect your payments up to a certain amount (is it £500?) smurfboy38761.626087963

I have done 12,000 positive transactions on ebay and have only had a handful of unhappy people.

Very little in life is 100% secure and foolproof. You have to decide whether it's worth the risk.

It's no different to buying from a shop or  a catalogue.

Plus the thrill of the chase.  My husband won a 'possibly Roman' votive frog yesterday.  You don't get those in Tesco!
