Whilst historically I have done Ok out of Ebay, for the last five or so years the Chav count (trailer trash to our US audience), has got way out of hand.
It only worked when it was the domain of nerds who obsessed with becoming a power w*nker, sorry I mean seller, but at least they were largely honest.
Now eBay is almost like doing a car boot over email- I did a car boot once out of curiosity and never again. It's either two hours of questions from people (normally with beards) with never any intention of buying or an Elizabeth Duke'd sixteen year old wanting to buy £20 quid worth of gear for a moody pound coin.
For cars I'd use autotrader and anything else, I'd rather take pleasure in burning than ebaying it. hiha
