In fact I just did. Bought a high-end pen tablet on ebay from a seller in the US. Even including overseas shipping, it was half the asking price here, so I felt lucky. The only problem, the package arrived with the box tampered and the tablet itself missing. So I am now stuck with a grip pen and a bunch of driver CD's :)

Man that sucks, I hope you can somehow get your money back.

Was the delivery insured?

Thanks, I really felt depressed that day. Not as much about the money (although it put a dent in my ramen budget), as the feeling of being robbed of a new toy :)

Yes, since it was Express Mail, it was automatically insured for 100 bucks.
