I recently won an eBay auction for a Powerbook 520, where the seller did not include the AC adapter.

I did a little searching online, and found a company that claims to have new ones:

Anyone have any experience with this company?

Anything "New" is still going to be NOS, so they could still be no good, unless they are tested before being shipped. And then, for how long they will be good is up to debate.

I just went through the ordering process, and it sent me to PayPal to settle. I don't like Paypal, and refuse to sign up, but I heard it's damn near impossible to file a claim if you're not a registered member.

I guess I could always file a chargeback with my credit card company, if I don't get it...
