It all depends on a case by case basis. I have gotten scamed 2 times on ebay and I have also got good deals on ebay. You need to read on how to use it safely and be smart about bidding. There is alot of info on thier site you need to read this so you don't get scamed.

Yeah, I've heard of people buying whole engines, and getting screwed over... I personally havent been screwed too bad, but my friend has, so it may just be luck, though I am careful. One time some fuck tried to screw me over and I turned it around on him. Free stuff is nice.
Heres the thing, watch for "style" or "like" or "similar" or "just as good" thats bs, and theyre not suppossed to do it, but they do, and sometimes people dont realize that its just an imitation.

Re: E-BAY good or bad

you have to be careful on ebay, know exactly what you are looking for, and read the feedback on the seller. If they have more than a few negatives, be skeptical. Most people are just trying to do business, but i have heard of people getting screwed. Also, there are a lot of look alikes like Spectre927 said. They will say "DC style" or "Greddy style", when they are really offbrands just trying to get your attention. There are good deals, just keep your eyes open.

another down side to to ebay or mail order delivery is that sometimes they mail u the wrong parts and u have to tell them to deliver u the right ones, which just takes even more time. im in that predicament right now, just bought some msd s/p wires for my 2nd gen nonvtec and they brought me one for a 3rd gen vtec . now im still doing the waiting game.

Re: E-BAY good or bad

ebay is real good. i perfer buying stuff thats under 500 bucks there. my motto is, if they have 300+ happy customers, they probably arent gonna rip u off. besides, im most speed shops they add about 50% to there prices.
u decide^^
