The BBB has tips to avoid toy scams:
Stick to reputable stores and websites: The best way to avoid being scammed is to buy directly from a seller you know and trust.
Beware of extra-low prices: A site may look professional but if an offer seems "too good to be true" - it probably is.

Do your research before you buy: Make sure the company has a working customer service number before turning over your credit card.
If making an in-person transaction through an online classifieds site, do so safely: Public places, such as police stations, are the best way to buy or sell in person and avoid being robbed.
