    but you also gotta watch that thier +5 isnt all from them buying crap like ebooks for 1cent. people will do that then try to sell big stuff. i try to only deal with payments by paypal, especially when its insured up to a certain ammount...

    Yeah lol I was the one of the few that reported that one.

    It was just WAY too good to be true. If it WAS then I would've taken it. Guy didn't even reply to my e-mail asking if it was legally registered in the US lol.

    Could be shady. But seems more like someone that is very new to computers and ebay. I don't think someone being shady would accept cash in person :P

    Lol, a long time ago, and I mean a LONG time ago. I would buy a game and copy it and put the games label on it with label maker and sell it on ebay. I had a ebay store and all it showed was pics of my cdrom and burners.LOL
