Be careful when getting caught up in the Auction Process. Make sure you take in to consideration the shipping charges before you think you are getting a good deal. I've noticed lately that items on Ebay are a lot of times more expensive (after you include shipping) than what I can pay for it in the stores. I've had an Ebay account since the late 90's. I personally have never had a bad experience but my poor hubby has had a few. Poor thing. But it has gotten better for him 
Also, you have to be careful if you leave someone Negative feedback because they are likely to do the same to you whether you deserve it or not. And once the negative feedback is there it doesn't come off.
Good Luck with the Ebaying!!!

I only buy from reliable sellers with a decent amt of feedback. Even if they have a few negs I study it out as sometimes they were just treated badly by a bad buyer and they couldn't help it. You can tell by reading the feedback and then checking the feedback of the person who left them their neg.
I have had a couple of disappointing buys and a few bad selling experiences but overall I still really like Ebay. You do gotta watch shipping though. I have been buying more from the stores than the auctions lately, seems like the auctions just end up being bid up to the store price anyway if you count shipping charges. So I end up mostly using the Ebay stores, and only if its either unavailable in my area or cheaper than anywhere else.
I have made close to 300 transactions on Ebay and I would estimate only about 1/2% of those or less were disappointments so that's pretty good!
