Ebay reliable for samples?

Wanted to test out a few samples before I committed and bought large bottles. What is your experience with Ebay vendors (high volume, impeccable feedback)? Any you would suggest?

Thanks,
GST

I have never had issues buying samples on eBay.

I suppose it depends on what you are looking for as to whether eBay is the best place to go, or perhaps another online vendor.

Mostly positive experience with ebay and samples. Maybe the worst experience was when I ordered samples of Hermes Eau D' Vert Orange and was sent samples of Eau de Gentiane Blanche instead. Maybe some would argue that I got lucky in the process!

I've purchased many samples threw ebay and always ended up with legitimate stuff that's packaged well. Actually a few of the sellers will contact me after and let me know of there decant list and offer slightly lower prices then what they offer on ebay. This is against ebay policy but still its nice to skip the middle man.
