Ebay Esmay Buyer beware.

I’m in the market for a few things, just asking around on some good prices for Musical instruments, software, and such, but a lot of people are telling me to hit up ebay. So I go there and blam, the prices are terrible, $50 off is not a good deal and some of the stuff is based on the msrtp markup, even for old stuff. I mean, if I’m spending on a $1000 plus item, 40 – 50% is good; I’ve found cheaper deals on Craig’s list. Hell, you can get just about anything in California and with a good deal. So do that research folks, because ebay in a con waiting to happen.
