ECrater: Buyer protection?Refunds?

Question

I just ran across this website and i wanted to buy a new tennis racquet. I see that a babolat pure drive (normally $200) is selling for $80. Is eCrater kind of like ebay with people as sellers rather than the site or what? Almost every person on eCrater i come by has no feedback. is there refunds or buyer protection? Safe secure transation?

Thanks

Hi there,

I just checked eCrater out and the few items that I looked at all accepted PayPal as a form of payment.  I believe that you are exceptionally well protected when making payment through PayPal.  If you do not receive the item or it is not as described then you will  need to file a dispute with PayPal and the majority of the time you will receive a refund. I have had PayPal for years now and believe that it is very safe and secure.

Unfortunately I do not make payment through any other source as there seems to be no protection for the buyer anywhere else.

Also, Most of the sellers feedback scores on eCrater are listed next to, or just underneath their ID ..  Seems to me that eCrater works very similar to eBay.

Hope this helps :-)
