eBay seller query

[JoeDfan]

I have bought from him(?) a few times, and no issues at all.

Some smaller sellers still actually run "true auctions" on Ebay, even though it's getting more and more difficult to break even on them.

Granted, looking at his "Sold" auctions, he's got quite a bit of loss leaders near the bottom of his list. Nothing wrong with that as long as he's following through on the sales.

Personally, I'd be questioning giving so many fees to Ebay and Paypal, and having to take the time to ship all that stuff out, for negative payout on so many lots.

He's got lots of interesting oddball stuff though.

The oddball stuff is what I was looking at. I enjoy Cubs oddball stuff!!

I just bought something from him, but it's in the mail. I have no reason to believe anything is wrong with him. The piece I bought is solid, but it's an autographed item.

I don't think there'd be a problem. Lots of the big vintage sellers start their items low, and they wind up going for quite a bit more than similar items. Besides, as someone else said, eBay sides with the buyer pretty much every time.

Thanks. Appreciate all the great comments. I have several things on watch at present.
