Buying online can be risky- ebay or otherwise. As long as you don't buy impulsively and research the company you'll be okay.

Thanks... I'll still most likely buy from an actual store--go and pick up the camera myself... I'm too paranoid & I prefer to buy at an actual store than online--I only order online if I have to or if it's such a good deal that I have to or something but that's about it(so if I found an EXTREMELY good deal on a camera I might buy it on ebay if it was from a good seller who had a money back guarantee or something, otherwise probably not). I have been ripped off online before. By Amazon.com actually...luckily it wasn't anything really expensive, but I still lost about $20 thanks to them. I never even got the item I bought. I was pissed...I guess they had somebody dishonest working for them who cashed my money order and then they kept saying they hadn't received my money order--yet SOMEBODY got the money from it and I never got what I ordered. :rolleyes: So I'm completely against amazon now...would never buy from there again!
