You can't see those online. [/quote] eBay is definitely a gamble when it comes to hookah purchasing, but you just have to be willing to trust the seller's word on the condiiton of everything. If they say it's in good condish, it better be when you receive it. If it's not, file a claim with them, send it back, get your money back, etc... There's a fair amount of protection for the buyer when it comes to eBay. But you also have to be careful as a buyer and know there's idiot sellers on there as well. It's all about being a smart and informed buyer, really. Don't buy from someone with negative or nonexistant feedback, someone who can't spell, someone who took pics trying to cover something up, not enough detailed pics, etc... The list goes on. Just be smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 It's all about reputation. If the seller has a good feedback score and percentage. Odds are if you are dissatisfied they will work with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
