Usually, I just buy stuff from Amazon. If it's something I want, but can't afford, I rationalize, and don't buy it.
Of course, if it's something I need, and can't afford, I shop around, and I think it's always a good idea to check out the consumer reports sites.
Honestly, I think buying anything over 200$ from ebay is ridiculous. If it's something rare, like a baseball card, or the like, then it's a little bit better. But if it's something you could buy off of amazon or at a local store, I'd buy it from there. I really wouldn't risk it, seeing that ebay can be corrupted, and many people get cheated.
And just think, the extra money you pay is worth it, when you factor in the time and the risk of getting scammed, if not actually getting scammed.
