Buying on eBay

[GeneralGirl]

So here is topic number ... about buying on eBay but I couldn't find my answer in the other ones.

I'm quite new when it comes to trading and I'm therefore looking for reasonably prized traders and keepers. So of course buying on the internet helps but since there are tons of scrappers out there I'm kind of scared I'll end up with just scrappers.

The pins I was interested were from the Mad T Party Mystery Pin Collection and I couldn't find a scrapper warning on PinPics. I also looked at the link that was posted in the other threads ( the one from disboard) but the seller wasn't on that list. And even looking at the feedback wasn't really helpful since they sell more than just Disney Pins, but the negative feedback that was there wasn't about Pins.

Are there any other ways of knowing whether this is a good seller or not. Or should I just buy a few pins and hope for the best...

Read the reviews, especially the negative ones. Also message the seller! If the seller is open and honest they will be more than willing to answer your questions. Also you can look at what a majority of the pins they sell are, if the sell a lot of pins that are commonly scrapped I would steer clear of them, even if the pin you are buying isn't a scrapper that makes me question the sellers integrity.

Thanks for replying, I read the negative reviews but there weren't any about the Disney pins so that wasn't really helpful.

But I'll check the other pins they're selling if they if those have any scrappers warnings.
