yeah, that's a tough call. ebay's system for ranking sellers is pretty true though. if they have a high seller rating and good rankings, you can go read the commentary of people they've sold things to.

that'll usually tell you. i'd stick to matt's advice for any non-ranked seller.

if you DO have stuff shipped to you, find out EXSACTLY where it's being shipped from and tell them you own a gun. Then you should get quality parts.
