I actually purchased my reg (an Atomic T1/B1) and computer (a brand new Aeris), and a Motormarine IIex camera on ebay. I was satisfied with the purchases both for price and quality. In my experience, I've found that if you're considering a specific purchase, it's okay to ask the seller lots of questions. Most folks are eager to help. You can also buy through an escrow account, so if the merchandise isn't as advertised, you can return for a full refund. The key to getting good stuff at a decent price is to know what you want, know what you're willing to pay for it (don't get caught up in a bidding war), and patience.
