eBay

[Hooper]

Hello guys

I just completed a transaction on eBay, my first. I ordered a new Raytheon L750 fish finder with a TM ducer for $389.99. I was going to go with the Furuno 600 but I had many tell me it may be hard to see, and a friend with a 23' Regulator set up like my SC went with the Ray 750 and likes it alot.

The reason for the post is, I have never used eBay, but the deal seemed "too good to be true" uh-oh.... A new Ray 750 for under $400, sounded really good to me, I was planning on spending upwards of $800-1000 for a good machine. But the photo showed a new machine in plastic and the power cables still had ties on them and the ducer was also wrapped. The transaction was made thru bidpay and that seemed OK.

Anywho, I am wondering if any CSC.com'ers use eBay on a regular basis and if you do how had you done with it? Are there any real pitfalls to look out for?

I am now scouting for a digital camera and again, some of the deals seem too good to be true!!!! Again, UH-OH!!!!

I am interested to hear from the crew. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
