That's why I think ebay is the wild west of commerce. You're never 100% sure what you're going to get. And when you do get it, the numbskull may of shipped it in an envelope.

My favorite is one time I won an item at an outstanding, deal of century price. I paid and waited weeks for my item to show up. The seller later "regretted to inform me that the item I had won, had gone missing and was possible stolen. I regret telling you that I'll have to give you a refund."

Months later, low and behold, a very similar item showed up on ebay under his seller name. With a reserve of course.
