Default reels

Ebay purchacing can be a risky thing. I am not saying not to try it,
just be careful. I would hesitate to buy from anyone with bad feedback
or a new user with little feedback. Between my family and me, we have
probably made 3 or 4 dozen purchases off ebay and only been stiffed
once, but I would hate to get stiffed on a high dollar item. Remember to
see how much they want for shipping and handling before you bid, I've
seen $25 shipping charges on a $10 item the size of a notebook.
Personally, If I can't save a LOT of money on the deal, I won't take the
risk on a stranger miles away.

Could someone give some advice about buying reels on ebay?

Be careful. A friend of mine got pooched on a 1000 dollar piece of video
gear. Seller had good feedback references, too.
Because the crook was in Canada and my pal was here in Maine, he had to
go thru mucho red tape to get it investigated, all for naught. 10
C-notes gone with the wind.
