Depends a lot on what turbo you're looking for and who on fleabay.

I have bought and sold many things on ebay with no issues in the least... but that is not to say it won't happen one day. I am very careful who I buy from though.

Well, here's a hint for buying turbos on eBay.

Don't buy anything that says XS Power anywhere near it. That will rule out about 75% of the auctions...
