Well, everybody has different experiences, I guess.
I have bought hasselblads on eBay. I have bought laptops and desktops on eBay.
Problems? Yeah. I had a girl stiff me on a $12 software purchase.
The biggest purchase I every made on eBay? $4000 for a demo Canon 1D (saved nearly $3000). Sold it two years later for the same money.
I’ve bought a used Mac, a few replacement parts for computers, and an ice maker for a refrigerator. The computer worked for a while, but I had to replace the power board, external power supply, RAM, and optical drive. By the time I did all that, I’d spent almost what a certified refurbished one would have cost.
