Paul,
I agree with Jon and the others. I have over 400 transactions there
over the last 10+ years, trying different gear and then selling and
trying something else, and I've never had a single issue as the vast
majority of the sellers of ham gear are hams. Having a look at their
standing lets you know if there have been issues in the past and it's
not bee any different there, for me, than using eham.net or qth.com or
any other ham site.
