I posted a similar thread about six months ago and some of the answers were really interesting. If you remember the thread, or know who the dealer is I'm talking about, please let some of the other people respond first. That's what makes it fun! 
This eBay seller has 302 unique positives
12 neutrals (3.6%) and 17 unique negatives (5.1%) as follows:
Complaint : Coin Scratched, NOT PROPERLY REPRESENTED,Box Destroyed,NO RETURN POLICY
Complaint : Refunded money on lost coin & kept the 20% comission! I'm Very Pissed!!! Rip off
Complaint : Extremly slow and complicated transaction
Complaint : Need more practice with international bidders. High premiums for poor service.
Complaint : POOR COMMUNICATIONS! NOTHING BUT EXCUSES. A GOOD PLACE TO SELL YOUR JUNK COINS!!
Complaint : WARNING! COIN NOT AS DESCRIBED.NICKS &HAIRLINES. BORDERING ON FRAUD! AVOID!
Complaint : items not shipped promptly; some employees neither pleasant or helpful

Complaint : This was advertised as excellent condition - it was anything but!!
Complaint : Service bad/refund slower. Said 11 days to get my check! No response to inquiry.

Complaint : NEVER FULLFILLED COMMITMENT TO SELL BASED ON AUCTION RESULTS
Complaint : item not very fine,stained,scratched ect,please learn to grade
Complaint : terrible (non)commun, no responsibility, will never do (XXXXXX) again
Complaint : 4 weeks (!) later they told me there was apparently another succesful bidder...
Complaint : INACCURATE DESCRIPTION. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE,TOOK 14 PHONE CALLS + 3 EMAILS
Complaint : No reply to 2 emails requesting payment info - guess he got a better price.
So, what do you think? Would you buy from these people? Or are they not reputable enough based on their feedback?

So we're greedy, I see!
No, Doops' feedback is much better (percentage-wise)
I'll give it a few more minutes, then let you all know.

A little too recent to completely ignore. I would probably not bid, depending on the item value.

if it were only an OK deal, you could find a more reliable seller of the item.
cant think of any reason to bid

Granted this is their account for Live acutions, which have had quite a few problems, but the point is that I don't think you would find very many members who would warn you about this dealer! Yet, others with far better feedback (Earlycoins, Pepperdoodles, etc.) are constantly scrutinized on this board. Just thought it was interesting to point this out.
Edited to add: Thanks to everybody for replying honestly (even Russ
