Default Curious....Anything you would NEVER buy off of ebay?

Just got curious..........is there anything you would NEVER buy off of ebay? For me personally I would never buy undergarments, REAL gold jewelery, or any type of vehicle.......pretty much everything else works for me.....oh....well except for Perfumes, I have purchased before, and gotten real ones, but I am SUPER careful NOT to buy from sellers who ONLY sell perfume, as that is usually not a good sign.......

High end designer goods (not that I buy those anyway)
Razor blade cartridges
Anything where SAFETY is an issue
Used clothing or underwear. But I wouldn't buy that offline, either.

Shows how much faith people have in eBay!

I don't buy anything on there apart from some charity things which I'm not really buying for the product.

Yeah, I guess I would never buy a TV either....although I have searched for home stereos before....but dont understand enough about the lingo so I never actually purchased from ebay....I pretty much turn to amazon and ebay EVERYTIME I want to buy just about anything that isnt a necessity.....always trying to find the best price for things.....if I find something in a store that I want, I usually check those 2 sites before purchasing to see if I can get it cheaper! A penny saved IS a penny earned,lol! And I like "stuff"!!!!

I have a SLIGHT shoe addiction and that is probably the number one thing I purchase off of ebay.....my little "collection" is getting close to 4 digits, crazy I know, but really LOVE shoes....I like heels and boots and stuff, but I have purchased name brands like Timberland's many-a-times and find that the name brands off of ebay seem to almost always be "slightly irregular"....so seem to stay away from the name brands like that myself when it comes to buying shoes on ebay as well.

haha, I only buy my shipping supplies on ebay or like misc. car parts, tools, etc. stuff like that. Nothing electronic or high end stuff.

I usually take my ebay profits and go shop at store for what I want, lol.

The used panties in vending machines is actually Japan. There's just something about Japanese guys and their craze for preteen school girls.

And c'mon you guys, all this talk about not buying "⊗⊗⊗⊗" stuff. I hope by now you would be able to tell the difference between a seller that's selling ⊗⊗⊗⊗ as opposed to a seller that's selling legit, I know I can. If I wanted to buy a legit product that was highly counterfeited off of someone on eBay, I can guarantee what comes in the mail would be 100% legit.

I have searched ebay for a seasoning that is only available in my lovely home state of New Jersey and other northern states......living in the south......they have no types of ethnic foods! But havent found the seasoning on ebay EVER....but I check periodically.

Japanese love their vending machines.

I would never buy shoes. Companies seem to take shoe sizes as suggestions, one brand's 11 is another's 10.

Someone mentioned snacks, there are a few vendors on ebay selling homemade candy in bulk. Tastes good man.
