HI David,

I've had great results with Ebay, but it is buyer beware. You can email and ask questions of the sellers and also get the information on how other people rate their experience with a particular seller.

People are very quick to write scathingly bad reviews when they get burned.

I've bought brushes, clothing, cameras, printer ink, a Flamenco shawl, deerskin hides, faceted semi-oprecious stones and a skull model. And I am sure tons of other things as well, and so far I have had excellent luck.

I NEVER BUY if the buyer won't take PayPal. Requirements for written checks, money orders or Western Union payments are recipes for disaster.

For $20 go for it.
