Ouch.  Well, it looks like it isn't just me then.

I don't have much choice---I collect Classic Space.  Occasionally
I catch wind of a non-eBay deal, but in general everything ends up
piled on eBay.  I'll just have to accept missing pieces as a fact
of life and put up with the inconvenience..., which at the moment
extends to a database to track what I'm missing, whether I've
contacted the seller about it, etc.

(...) Same frequency as you experience on eBay (which is why I'ver pretty much stopped buying sets there) well under 5% (instead of 30%) for trades/auctions run here. never yet happened to me on BrickBay. Hmm.... maybe you should stop buying on eBay (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-01, to lugnet.market.theory)
