I have been looking lately at some of the offerings on Ebay and I have to wonder if these are real CD's or copies made to look like the original. What is your experience with buying music off of Ebay?
I've purchased over 100 CD's in the past six months with no problems whatsoever. That said, I only buy from sellers with nearly flawless feedback records and I often verify with them everything is as it appears in their auction.
Ed, you have to give us examples of what CDs you are talking about. I've bought a lot of legit and import CDs. And I have bought "unofficially released live and demo recordings." Some have been silver CDs and some have been CD-Rs. You can always email the seller and ask.
