Would you buy from an eBay seller's non-eBay store?

There's an eBay seller who has a link to their non eBay store. Their eBay rating is good (it's over 10000, iirc), but do you think that the regular website would be as reliable? You don't think they'd slack off when there's no feedback, do you? I don't really like buying from websites I don't know, but I'd think their eBay reputation would be a good indicator. I just hate buying from online stores I don't know.
 
[quote name='othergames']yeah, they take paypal. it's www.htmaxpower.com

I found it on one of the listings from htmaxpower on eBay. there's a link in the description.[/QUOTE]


i would trust it with paypal being as they have good ebay feedback, plus if anything did happen you could just file a paypal dispute, i am sure they know this since they sell on ebay, so i dont think it would be a problem, but i have never used the site, sorry. good luck


edit: they look to be pricey, hopefully you found something that is cheap. everything i looked at is horribly over priced
 
that's a good point about paypal. I've never had to make a claim with them -- is it a pain? they don't make you jump through hoops for months if there's something wrong, do they?
 
well, i'm kinda particular about the games i buy. This guy has a lot of kinda rare stuff. You're right, though. a lot of it is pricey.

it sucks, but its not that bad (from what i am told). you just tell them what happened, then they investigate and if the seller does not prove the item was delivered, then you win the case. everyone i know that was a buyer and had to file a dispute always won. but i personally have not had to file one. but i am told its simple but take a little while for them to investigate
 
FWIW, "ProStores," the platform that they're using, is also an eBay-owned company. They've probably exported their eBay listings and are paying a lower commission.

I used it once but didn't make a single sale, so f that.

htmaxpower seems like a reputable seller. I see their stuff listed all the time.
