    Why don't you start by making a few purchases from sellers who are respected board members, just to get your feet wet, and then go from there?

  • The best advice I can think of to give you is to read the feedback, not just their rating, but the comments too. I've bought from people with negitives, just not many negitives, and I read the negitive feedback too. I also think its good if people have a return policy of some sorts.

    Good Luck!!
