Why you should not buy Traktor on ebay

Paypal is generally safer for buyers; be sure to research up on all the popular scams before selling anything though.

PayPal:

a) Are insured to the hilt
b) Will refund without question in the majority of cases where there's an issue, and ALWAYS where you can PROVE you've been duped/let down
c) Take the liability of every transaction on your behalf, and then chase the sellers down themselves

In the past 10 years I've spent WELL over £10k on eBay (maybe another 5k on PayPal with other sites), and not once have I ever actually been properly ripped off. Don't get me wrong; I've gotten items which were in a bit worse condition than I'd expected, made stupid PEBKAC errors where _I'VE_ ordered the wrong item, and just generally gotten poor quality goods which have broken after less than a year (a £9.99 gas-powered soldering iron springs to mind), but these VERY few "bad" end results are nothing that couldn't have happened at a market or even a cheapo high street store.

The benefits WAY outweigh the risks, in my book

I have not had one single bad transaction. Never been ripped off.

All depends what your buying. I think there is much more risk inherent in buying something like Traktor that is/has been easily cracked.

Software piracy is rife on eBay. I wouldn't buy software.

I buy all my Gundam kits from eBay. Reputable sellers are no risk.

Gundam kits. Aww. Dats cute

Haha jk. I love Gundam.

Gundam calms me down. It's therapeutic.

If you want cute... I still buy Lego

even if the money had been moved out of the account, paypal will refund you out of their own pocket, that is how they have like the best customer service in the world.
