I have bought many phones on ebay as well as selling my old phones. I have never had a problem. I look for sellers with high ratings and I check to make sure they have a good record in selling phones. If they have not sold many phones, I look to see the feedback from what they have sold. I have probably bought about 10 phones and sold as many. Not a huge number, but my experience has been positive. Of course the phones I was selling were mine, so I knew the condition and that the ESN's were clear. I represented them fairly on ebay and they sold for what they were worth. PayPal is also your friend on ebay. Great protection just in case you get burned. Good luck, I think you will be OK and get a MUCH better deal on a phone than you will ever get with Sprint.
