    No codes around... haven't been for a while now.
    Check sellers rating and feedback. If the numbers are low (say, 10 ish) look into the individual items that they sold.
    Compare the dates of the auction end with the date of the feedback left.
    If they are on the same day, be suspicious.

    If you can, pay using a credit card (via Paypal)... Visa is best for getting your money back if the item never arrives.

    If you wish, email the seller to be sure they reply before you pay.
