I'll mention Gumtree as it's similar and face to face buying is recommended.
I've bought a few low cost items without a problem, as in the previous post it's similar to a classified add or postcard in a shop window.
The only problem I had was when the advertiser hadn't included a picture of the Samsung tablet. He obviously didn't have it in his posession, so I had a wasted journey to Reading.
He e-mailed me a week later to say he had it.
Meanwhile I had purchased a Sony tablet from Aberdeen which I paid for with Paypal, no problem.
