Topic: How often do you go to eBay?

Hardly ever nowadays...

I'm thinking of buying things from ebay. how reliable is ebay?

@Bleh: It varies from seller to seller, but overall it's pretty reliable. I've bought quite a few things from eBay—video games included—and I've only had one seller rip me off (it was only about $15, though, and that was back when I was first starting out and still browsed items from sellers whose ratings weren't basically impeccable). So, basically just use common sense and check a seller's rating and customer satisfaction score and you should be fine...

@Metroid_Fan: Thanks. i wanna use ebay because i wanna buy games that aren't available at my local game store.

When I sell games (which isn't too often) I use it. I also use it to pick up retro games you wouldn't be able to find used in stores anymore. Other than that, I don't really use it that much.

Can't avoid linking to the famous Judge Judy vs. ebay scammer clip.

Gotta be sure to read carefully. Supposedly somebody once paid $500 for an X-Box box. Though I only saw it happen on the 360, scammer buried the notice within a wall of text pasted from a Microsoft press release.

Once or twice a year, and I never actually buy anything.

I've never actually used any of those auction sites although I sometimes like to look around for some games.
