My wife has sold several gaming items and books for me over ebay and the
results were pretty good overall. We've even purchased a bunch of stuff
(Battletech figures) that we couldn't find locally for decent prices
(not
great, but decent).
I'd have to say that our experience with ebay has been pretty good--but
we've been pretty careful.
