I sell quite a bit on E-Bay, but no train stuff. I sell collectible toys and action figures. Mostly 70's dolls and figures. So far I have had only 2 bidders not pay me. A lot of the e-bay doll community is well known and I am trying to be one of the good sellers. I've been lucky and had a lot of good buyers as well. I've only been selling since Aug '05 so I haven't really been at it a long time. (about 120 auctions so far?) My mother-in-law doesn't even have a 'real' job, all she does is sell dolls on e-bay. She has had very few problems either. She had a great one right before Christmas. She sold a Barbie with a bunch of outfits for $5800.00. (it was REALLY old) Someone copied her pictures and posted thier own auction, then sent out e-mails to the bidders of her auction offering them a second chance (saying the original buyer backed out). Luckily my mother-in-law and the buyer are both very well known and most people could see it was a scam. But e-bay did put a temporary freeze on her account while investigating it. <br /> <br />The jerks (buyers or sellers) are bound to be out there but hopefully you won't get too many.
