I bought a camera a few years ago from ebay which didn't arrive, and in the end went through hell with PayPal.
I'm going to try again - but this time insist on registered post. However very few sellers seem to offer registered post as a shipping option.
It's a bit of a pain to have to message each seller prior to bidding to make sure they will indeed send it registered post.
Do you think I'll have a problem insisting on it (and paying the premium) should I win the auction?
You are the one that will pay extra so i dont see why not.
