I don't really post on this board, but I ctrl+f'd and there didn't seem to be a general questions thread, so here's mine:

Ebay is pretty good with keeping sellers honest, right? There's this one chap selling figures at 1/3rd the price of the other listings, and it's a somewhat niche 1/6 scale action figure, new in box. The snag is that the seller is located in China. There's no known bootlegs for this figure however, given it's pretty new. If I can trust ebay to have my back should the item never show up (or if a brick shows up), I'll definitely grab one. I was just wondering if any of you fellas had any experience doing the risky business online.
