Mark HoltI share your concern about raw T206s on eBay. I've bought quite a few and I believe I've picked up a Willis that was trimmed and a Carr that may be fake (why would anyone fake a low grade minor league common?). I'm sending both for grading and it will be interesting to see how they come back. Getting some question marks on eBay has led me to PSA graded cards and for all the issues people have with them I think they improve your chances of not getting ripped off considerably.
There are several eBay seller's that I'm comfortable with and buying raw from them is no problem.
Take a look at scans on the t206museum web site or graded scans on the PSA Registry and you can get a good feel for what a specific card should look like.
