I fell into a scam when I bought a Super Reverb Amp on Reverb. The Amp arrived, definitely not in mint condition as listed..scratches, rips, broken corner, etc. The tubes had to be put back into it, as they had been packaged separately. Looking at them I noticed they looked strange. They were broken. Looking inside the amp, the tubes had been broken off up inside the sockets, then taken out and packaged. I called the guy who sold it to me. His story went back and forth on how he had never actually seen it but had bought it and taken the sellers word on it being mint. This went completely against what he had told me on reverb about him inspecting it and it's cherry. He has me send it back so I can get my money. I do get refunded. But, so does he for the cost of the amp. He told reverb that I packaged it wrong and it was completely destroyed when he got it. So, somehow it was all my fault now and I was told by reverb that I need to be more careful from now on. I told them to get their business straight and recognize a scammer instead of paying them out.

Yup, just weigh the item you own and fill the same weight in a box so it's equal weight of the product or near enough and ship. More people are filming goods before opening them up due to what has to be the oldest scam in the book. Years back people used to purchase consoles and take the box back with stones in it used to work in a game store and some lad tried that on with me, got to say made me laugh especially when he ran off leaving the box behind free stones! :)
