Who Shouldn't I buy from?

Who Shouldn't I buy from?
I bid on a lot of Neo Geo Ebay auctions.
Mostly for MVS items but I do buy various other games and stuff from Ebay.
I was wondering who's Ebay auctions should I stay away from.
I see some bad deals go on in this forum with unsavory people.
I can't tell,
I don't know what certain sellers names are on Ebay that are members here or that are known to be unsavory.
I may be looking to buy something from them off Ebay and I won't know that they are the same known to be Scammer on the forums.
They could have great feedback.
I don't want to start a War Room Epidemic.
I would just like to safe guard myself form getting ripped off.

Well my Ebay name is Gamesbyruss (who would buy from someone named Shiftyfink). Lets see.... I wont rip you off and I indirectly tell you if the game is a boot or not in my description. There, buy from me! HA HA HA.

I am very unsavory.

Actually not, I just wanted to call myself unsavory.

Avoid the Germans. Nothing racist, but a lot of the cart collectors from there are dangerous, as is my experience. I have yet to deal with some of the cooler members here from Germany like Takumaji, or Supergoose, or the_move, though.

For MVS, shiftyfink is THE man, from what I can tell. Now that MDgamesales is going/gone. He's a great guy.

I wouldn't say avoid the Germans at all. There are two that have made things a bit crappy, but I wouldn't avoid a whole kick ass country because of it! Many MANY great sellers here, so fear not... or at least, fear less.

I have had three bad transactions with peopel other than KS and Chriz77.

All of my bad x-actions have come from there.
