Yeah, that's part of the problem of being PayPal. Some buyers are scammers, some sellers are scammers, there's no way to know what was actually in the box, and it's impractical for them to have the expertise to judge the authenticity, quality, and condition of every kind of niche item sold through

Hello all, My two and a half cents worth on transactions. When possible, always use credit cards, but never debit cards. If it is not possible to pay by credit card - ask yourself this question. "Do I really need this product and is this vendor the only one selling it"? Your answer should
