Personally, no. But my father recently discovered Facebook (I don't have it). He gets brass and bullets from guys on there all the time. He just got 250, 30-06 LC brass from a guy in either Texas or New Mexico off Facebook. He also bought 1000 9mm brass off there two weeks ago. No issues. Although some of the '06 brass he dated to ~1913. But it's still in great shape.

There are a few guys selling brass that are reputable and have tons of feedback available. I personally haven't used them but I know quite a few that have and were happy. $20/1000 for 9mm brass is the average price there, and .223 can be gotten cheap fully processed too. Lots of oddball calibers available there too.
Is this on a Facebook page? How do I see their feedback?

The Weasel-to-Honest-Man ratio is higher on Facefarm, but I've been generally happy. Just remember, there's no community to weed out the scheisters.
Can't find anywhere else to buy .30-06 for $0.12 ea, shipped.

I don't know that they have feedback per say, but looking at the postings 99.9% are happy with what they have gotten. I'll look up some names shortly and put them here.

Doesn't Facebook have a no firearm stuff policy? PayPal certainly does. PayPal has been known to cancel accounts and confiscate(as in steal) any funds used for firearm stuff.

Facebook won't let you sell guns. Accessories are fine. PayPal usually doesn't care unless someone gets screwed and complains or you are doing a lot of business.

Check out Wes Sage on Facebook. Sage's Reloading Supply is great, RMR is great as well, and The Brass Bank. There are a few others and as I remember the. Or come across them again I can list them if anyone wants me too.
the brass bank was one I was looking at. I just need 9mm brass and maybe 223 brass. I see a lot of guys selling but no way to know if I'm going to get screwed.

Just look at the discussion following their posts. Usually will have the feedback in there somewhere and the general feeling of the seller.

facebook has many many gun-related pages set up by anyone who wants to set one up .Tons of components are being bought and sold on there with very good prices,and almost never a complaint. I spend several hours a day perusing about a dozen gun pages.
You can do that when yo're retired and the coastal rain sets in.

Have looked at those FB pages, seems like a lot of commercial sellers. Never bought there but have gotten brass several times from the cast boolits forum. Last ones were 9mm @ 30.00 for 24 lbs. Saw this sale going right now for 17.00 per 1000 on 9mm and 40.00 per 1000 on 223/5.56.
