How sure is you're shipping and shopping with eBay is it okay to shop with eBay?

Ebay tries so hard to assure buyer protection that a lot of sellers get burned and stop dealing there. Shipping is by USPS Express Mail with tracking, so there is no problem there. If you buy gold or silver coins or jewelry you run into a problem because most people can not reliably identify this or that metal. Many things are clumsily described or preposterous to start with (haunted dolls).

Yeah, Ebay is safe for buyers now, but it was a lot more fun before. I used to buy scrap silver there and resell it to a refiner, but I haven't dealt there in several years.
