I stopped using e-bay about three years ago.
To many internet sites and facebook to sell stuff, evil pay is dead
Hobby Boats can be expensive when the hobbyist is limited on their own skill and expertise.

eBay policies are so buyer friendly that sellers are at greater risk for buyer fraud.  It's much more worrisome for when I sell things on eBay.  I have no issues buying on eBay for those very reasons.

Plus, for a non-business individual, the listing process has become overly cumbersome

I haven't sold on Ebay in many years, but still buy there occasionally.  For work we've actually found Ebay to be a decent resource for certain pumps or valves at good prices.  I think it's far from dead, but not the great experience it was years ago.
