I've bought a lot of stuff from ebay and when I say "there's no real recourse" that means there's no option to make me whole where the juice is worth the squeeze.
Been to this rodeo before from cheap books to expensive car parts.
If your experience is different, then you've been exceedingly lucky in always finding a seller who's willing to stand behind their sale.
For the most part, I've shared that luck. Also, for the most part I've avoided the "all sales final, no returns" auctions; but occasionally have made such a purchase because that's the only seller for the item I want. You roll the dice sometimes.
There's very few things that set me off worse than someone bragging about how great their luck is when I express disappointment that I had a bad turn. Well aren't you special? You going to actually HELP? No? Thought so.
Gunbroker is about the same.
