Ebay-ers, i need your input

[mw1235]

found a nice pair of twins brand new for a great price, and i really want to bid, BUT, the seller has a 79% satisfaction rating. that looks so bad to me, but its almost impossible to pass this up. what do i do? let it go?

 

[invaderskier36]

thats real tough

 

[anomericas]

it's hard to say, i generally don't buy from sketch buyers, but chances are that you'll probably get your product. what are the responses like? wanna throw up a link? id love to read em

 

[FNJ]

i would look at his feedback and read what people said about him.

 

[mw1235]

sure heres the link

im not going to say dont snatch my product but hey, whatever

got to admit, thats about the best deal youll find, considering it doesnt get past 250 or so

Hmm, looks like a good deal as far as price goes...but the feedback is somewhat sketchy (the last one that says the skis weren't wrapped and no poles especially)...I'd say go for it though, Ebay has buyer protection if he screws you, but I think you'll at least get your skis.

 

[Aenigma]

He's only had one bad comment from a buyer, and that's a really good deal so I say go for it.

 

[freeski1620]

i would say he is ok, the negatives he has had are neglegable. just message him before you bit and confirm how he will be sending the skis packing wise. and make sure you pay though pay pal and you will be chill.

 

[The_Oakley_Kid]

it up to you to buy it or not. Personally, the fact that he doesn't show you the whole picture kinda makes me think they might be damaged, but at that price, its a toss up.

 

[pvspencer22]

his last feedback is almost a year old, just message him and ask any questions you have

 

[RJD2]

I say he's a kid, and only has negative because he isnt real responsible with how he handles the sales n stuff....not sure tho

 

[RJD2]

also, it looks like the skis are only partially wrapped in plastic, make sure he gets mail insurance on that

 

[DopeSauce]

ouch, I only have 1 bad feedback, but I do most of my trades good now, that was my 2nd one and I was only 11.

 

[DopeSauce]

But yeah I would go for it, feedbacks often dont mean much

 

[Silence]

hmm apart from other things, they are a very good way of judging how trustworthy a seller is..

 

[mavw]

wow thats a super good deal

 

[Ryno]

Im just looking at the web addy and im going to say SAC flipper

 

[bda10889]

i wouldn't deal with this guy.... he has to many negs... it will be a sketchy situation...

could work out fine... but could be a nightmare too.

[andrewg]

great deal, but the seller is sketchy.

 

[Huckasorass]

yeah, just plan on not getting the poles, and the skis being a little scraped up and only half in plastic. If you accept that then bid. (getting skis in plastic is kinda pointless anyway, those poles are 15 bucks, and most dings a ski has pre-use are nothing compared to your first day out)
