By brother-in-law practically lives on eBay, he has a delivery of something to work (always someone to sign for it that way) about every other day. I don't think he's ever had his fingers burnt too badly. Oh, apart from a red MGF which he and his girlfriend bought about two years ago with no MOT (which they knew about) and then discovered how much it would cost to get it roadworthy (which they hadn't allowed for). It's still sat in the work's carpark lol. Hasn't moved since he bought it!

My experience is mixed. Most of what I've bought has been fine with the exception of some Cat6 cable which turned out to be sub Cat5!
