I'd like to try this forum before trying eBay.

I have a pretty good eBay rating, but no heatware.

Are buyers going to be afraid to buy from me?

Gear ranging from $100 - $1100.

Thanks.

Can I trust them to send payment?

It's kind of important I don't get ripped off myself.

Only trade with good traders (no negatives, 30+ transactions?) and you should be okay.

That's how most of us got started...

Yeah, just be willing to ship first and only trade with people with good heat. And me. I don't have a lot of heat, but you can trust me. ;)

only trade with people with very good heatware...and make sure it's actually their heat, and not someone using it to scam

that's how i started and i have about 25-30 heatware now, 100% positive :)

Like these people said, you have to be willing to ship first to established traders. Also always make sure its their heat by sending a message over heatware's site.
