Would you buy something from Amazon.com if the seller doesn't have a rating?

Question

It says rating just launched. Its an Ipod touch... I do not want to lose my money. Its a pretty decent price.

Answer 1

I never purchase from a seller that doesn't have a rating or has a low rating.

Answer 2

if u want to buy batteries, I suggest u buy it at http://www.batterylink.us, it is very famous in the battery industry

Answer 3

I wouldn't recommend it. Typically users without ratings either:

A. Don't know what they're doing

B. Don't fully know how to navigate the site properly or use all it's functions

C. Are relatively new to the system of "S+H (shipping and handling)" and will ask the buyer to pick up the item instead.

Though the price may be right, in the long run the price of experience will cost you less in the long run. This means that you will save either money or gas on shipping and handling, and save money in case something goes wrong. An experienced user will more likely be able to fix the problem, whereas an inexperienced user will just cost the buyer (you, in this case) more money to have a relatively simple problem fixed. Lastly my reasoning for this is it is the user's first time using the site to buy and sell- there are no ratings, or comments from other users on how the seller performs/responds, and you never know what you're getting if nobody else has gotten it before- to put it in terms. Long story short, no I wouldn't recommend you even take your chances, simply take your business elsewhere, and save yourself some money in the long run- some offers are "too good to be true".
