I just did exactly this last week with a vintage brass Omega Dealer sign. Saw on ebay, realized he was local and messaged him. He agreed to meet and I bought the item. We continued our planning messages to meet on eBay (as you should in such an instance) and we met two days later. He was a great guy and a clock and watch collector. We exchanged numbers after talking a bit in case either one of us saw something that may interest the other person.
