Ok people EBAY is a great place for deals but there are scammers trying to take your money and run. I have over 4 years on EBAY so I know whats what. First check the sellers feedback. If they have 1 or Zero and start selling TV's or notebooks worth $2000+ don't get taken. There is also a new scam wehere people have a feedback of 10 or 12 but if you look at the feedback the feedback is all from 0 sellers and for items of no value. They are trying to give you a secure feeling, yet they are scammers also. One more thing seems simple but can save you a lot of headache, buy from sellers that take Paypal, if you send a money order, or cashiers cheque, you can't dispute. If you use Paypal you can if the seller doesn't deliver the item you can get your money back. If you need any help feel free to ask my questions.

Good luck there are great deal to be found if you are aware of the bad people.
