Should I check it out, not just the Wah, but gear in general?

Has anyone bought gear off ebay, is it alright?

Here's an example actually that looked alright.

    i've bought some gear off of ebay and never had a problem other than not liking it as much as i thought i would <coughhjohnson'analog'echo/delaycough> and i've sold stuff on ebay w/o problems, in fact i sold a crybaby (different kind) to some college student in england (gave him free shipping, too).

    a lot of my favorite gear i use came from ebay.

    that's not to say it couldn't happen...that guy has a 100% feedback rating so, so far he hasn't ripped anyone off...i would always ask them questions, especially since i'm not able to see it and try it
    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way

  • I bought my amp, DD-5, and TU-2 off of ebay.

    Haven't had any problems...just make sure you ask all the questions on your mind and check out the feedback ratings, etc...you'll be fine.
