i have tried looking around ebay but i haven't bought something from them since and a couple of months ago i happen to accidentally go into a multiply site and found this shop owned by a young woman. i tried to buy something from her, though it was a risk everytime you transact with someone online but since then i have trusted her and we've become friends. she even sent me a shirt as a Christmas gift. well, more often than not, on most online shops there are feedbacks being made by shoppers, so you will know if you can trust that seller or not. you should also look out for how long has he/she been selling online, check the reputation among other shoppers. in the end, it still really is a risk when you buy online.

i think as long as they have the paypal logo and you pay through paypal you should be ok.

I buy things from anywhere I want to my friend. All the sites have the payment section secure. Look for the padlock down near your bottom task bar when doing the transaction. Also, I believe going through PayPal is safe. I either use my credit cards or PayPal.
