Re: Buying components from eBay?
We buy from eBay all the time but makes sure to check the delivery estimate. Many of the items ship from Asia and take 3-5 weeks to get to you. We will buy from these sellers during the off-season when we can wait but during build season it's often better to pay slightly more for a much faster delivery time. Also don't expect much in terms of customer service, or even manuals or data sheets some of the time.
