I've used Amazon Marketplace and had good results. I guess it just depends on the seller.
It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I've had good luck with Amazon Marketplace, but I don't know that it comes with any sort of guarantees or safe-guards.
Someday I will have actually helpful two-cents to throw in. I live in hope.

Heh. Amused by the upsidedown statue burying.
I'll be back...like tonight. Or tomorrow. Soon!
Muwahahahah! And so it begins. Another one sucked into the b.org....
Vortex is in DC, Erin. Or at least, she normally lives here. I believe right now, she is not here.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I think I am destined never to own a copy of Finding Serenity. I first ordered it from Powells ages ago but I got a nice note from them saying oops they don't have it but here's your money back. I placed the order on Amazon Marketplace along with a DnD screen for my roommate. He got his screen two weeks ago. pout. I hope Amazon will at least give me credit towards something else.

Hee. I should be available Friday and/or Sat. night. I will have a co-worker with me, but I can tell her I am meeting with old friends -- she's a big girl, she can go out one night by herself. I wanna ditch the work personage! Think of fun things to do/places to see! Cute boys! Trashy outfits! Boozy drinks!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Has anybody else used Amazon Marketplace? I didn't realize I wasn't ordering directly from Amazon until I'd already placed the order.
I've bought lots from the Marketplace with no trouble, but I check the user ratings first. Sometimes I'll pay more to get something from a seller with a higher rating.
Amazon Marketplace is where I usually buy CDs and books that are out of print.

I use it all the time. Just pick a seller with a high rating and you'll be fine. Many deal are to be had there, particularly as tommyrot notes, among OOP books and CDs and DVDs and such.
