I've used Discogs once successfully, which was to get a copy of Spectral Lore's Sentinel album, but I turn to the site as a last resort personally. It seems like there are less regulations for sellers and less protection for buyers if something does go wrong, with many stating that there won't be refunds if a package doesn't arrive unless you pay a huge registered shipping charge up front. Which is actually illegal but Discogs don't seem to police it like ebay, so some of those low price rare items on sale may be a case of too good to be true. Though I think PayPal would have your back if a package never arrived, because the seller would have to prove delivery regardless of what terms were laid down. Point is, you may end up paying out for registered shipping just to get a seller to release the item to you.
I'm currently hunting for an original press of Wyrd's Vargtimmen Part 1. I want the original because the reissue has shit artwork. The discogs prices are not far apart for each version, but the sellers are doing as I state above: insisting on buyer paying registered shipping otherwise no sale/loss of refund option.
