I would certainly find that an unacceptable failure rate. You have my sympathies.

I just can't do the "used" scene online. I sold an expensive, used item on Ebay a long, long time ago. And while everything worked out for the best, it was one of the most nerve-wracking experiences of my life: packaging it so it could survive the transit; waiting for the buyer to say it arrived in their hands safely; hoping they didn't try to claim it wasn't what I said it was; waiting on the payment to clear--thinking it was all going to go pear-shaped at any moment. I counted my blessings and swore off "used online" (buying or selling) right then and there. I need to turn "used" over in my hands first.
