i will agree that ebay is very much like a storefront these days, even much more than it was 2 or 3 years ago. people send out these ridiculous instructions like include a packing slip, write the item number 3 times on different places, and do this, and file the tracking number on this website. some crazy buyers, but 98% of the time the buyers are still good to work with. i just hate how few people leave feedback these days.

as far as craigslist, its the opposite. 2% of transaction are good, 98% fall through. and every time i try to buy anything i usually never get an email back. they need to require phone numbers. and the amount of spam mail i get from selling on craigslist is very upsetting.
