    I've had good experiences buying from popular sellers on ebay. Just make sure you see the manuf. or line of fabrics and don't buy odd lots ...

    I've had mixed results.

    If you're buying scraps or remnants - I have learned that seller's ideas are different about what "large" remnants or scraps are. I've had some that have truly been large, and others that have been strange sized cuts too small to do anything with.

    I have shopped eBay since I started this wonderful quilting hobby - and yes, I have been disappointed once or twice (after all, you just can't pet the fabric) but as a whole, 90% of my fabric has come from eBay venders.

    I make lots of Christian themed prayer quilts for charity, so I'm always crusing around eBay to find fabric with religious themes. There are a couple of OOPs that I'm always searching for and when I find them, I buy it all. Overall, very happy with eBay fabric.

    Many good transactions on eBay for me. I have one seller that I like so much, I even go to her eBay Store and buy directly - without having to bid - and still get great fabric and fabulous customer service. :)

    I have bought fabric and had good luck with that but I also bought precut squares that were supposed to be the same size. They were four different sizes. I will not get precut anymore.
