Because the marketplace is so polluted with scammers it might not be a bad idea to do as much, if not all business, with people you know or who have been selling on ebay consistently and for a long period of time. With Craig's list, I would guess everyone is a one shot seller.

Just the Net54 community alone gives collectors access to just about every collectible imaginable, and I would say with about 99% safety. It's better to pay pretty close to retail from someone you trust than to try to get a bargain from a stranger, because given enough transactions, one of those strangers may very well rip you off. It's not worth the aggravation, and even I limit my buying to a small pool of sellers.
