According to the Federal Trade Commission, Internet
auction fraud has become a significant problem. Most consumer
complaints center on sellers who:
don't deliver the advertised goods;
deliver something far less valuable than they advertised;
don't deliver in a timely way; or
fail to disclose all the relevant information about the product or terms of the sale.

Quick Tips for Buyers
Identify the seller and check the seller's feedback rating.
Do your homework. Be sure you understand what you're bidding on, its
relative value and all terms and conditions of the sale, including the
seller's return policies and who pays for shipping.
Establish your top price and stick to it.
Evaluate your payment options. If possible, use a credit card. It
offers the most protection if there's a problem. Consider using an
escrow service if the seller doesn't accept credit cards.
