totally reliable QC (never received anything bumped or scuffed or missing parts, or lightly used being passed off as new) and dispatch is great as you get notifications so you know when it will arrive to the hour.
if you've every suffered with hermes and similar cheapo delivery firms being hopelessly non-commital about delivery times (who is around and ready to answer the door from 7am to 7pm? doorman at the ritz and no one else) that gak to-the-hour delivery service takes all the stress out of it.
gumtree for local. we also have a great local little vintage and secondhand music shop which i try to support as and when i can.
if i use amazon-ebay i am really picky about feedback. i almost never buy from less than 100 feedback sellers or very new members. and i check to see it's not all 50p from china fidget spinners but proper things.
as to negs, sellers are afraid of geting them but there are genuine negs and stupid negs. so buyers should appreciate that a neg in a seller's feedback can just be an asshole buyer. i do try to establish what kind of neg before dismissing seller (actually that has given me an idea for a thread) .
i am planning to give reverb a spin before the hols, just to have an account ready to go in case. but i have to say prices generally seem way over the odds there. lots of chancers and dreamers, which is why i haven't bothered to date.
The guitar (bass) arrived as stated and was perfect from the get go and was even in tune!
Good returns policy and follow up to ensure all was ok.

In the last few years, Coda, Peach, Guitars4You, World Guitars, Thomann and eBay. And going back further I've bought from Guitar Village, Merchant City Music, Andertons, Richtone and others.
Some of those would have actually been over the phone but started from seeing things on the websites.
Touch wood, I've got no complaints about anyone, it all went fine including a couple of returns.
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
