Yes, rest assured, not a doubt in my mind that I would by from a seller like you mention... Plus, you're covered on eBay to a certain amount.(not sure if it would cover thousands)

I would not. From everything I have seen on the bay, I can get a better price either through an AD I have an established relationship with or one of the fine trusted sellers here on TRF

Is there some 'one-of-a-kind' / gotta-have-watch you have your eyes on with such a seller??

Why are you so set on eBay may I ask? Such horrible experiences chronicled at that site - chronicled here.

Sure why not. I would be real real real real careful though, since hackers can hack into powersellers ebay account. Almost pulled the trigger on 16613 when I got a notification from ebay a few hours later that the sellers account was hacked. I wouldn't know, I was just lucky. True, I can get my money back if I used my card/paypal...but the hassle of chasing down the bank etc...for 90 days...etc... is too much.

It depends from who and how much. Some of our own best TRF sellers sell on Ebay as well.

U$aveontime - is an excellent Ebay source. Joel has an excellent reputation, and I would definitely buy from him again.
