I strongly disagree with the last comment. As long as one does his homework (checks used dealers for prices), talks to the seller to clarify all the questions and keeps within the "70% off KEH" rule. In fact, I think very often it's *safer* to buy on ebay than from a dealer. On many occasions I had responses from dealers like "I cannot describe the <item>, I don't have it at hand: too much of inventory, but it's in an "ex[ex+/bgn]" condition." Duh! (I did get an "ex" lens from Adorama with fungus. Yes, they took it back. But also I lost time and $20 on shipping charges.) Most of the ebay sellers, otoh, do take time to answer all the questions to the best of their abilities.
