On eBay, we are constantly wondering who we can trust, and who we can buy from without worrying. I have found a few ways to find out who we can trust, and who is a responsible eBayer. First, don't hesitate to buy from the big companies and the "power sellers", these are almost always trustworthy people who will get you items to you as described and in a timely fashion. As for the normal eBay accounts, I have found that the best indicator is that first piece of feedback. This will show you if they are responsible or not. You can also tell how serious they are by testing their communication. The ones who communicate are the most responsible eBayers.
