Anyone can explain to me how ebay works?!! help...!!!?

Question

i saw this nice branded hangbag in ebay and they're selling it for a very cheap price...too good to be true i must say for a very branded handbag (gwen stefani's l.a.m.b for le sport sac)...!!!!

can someone tell me why is it that cheap?

i dont get it..i mean, they ask u to bid starting from $10.00...

how could that be for something that is branded and authentic??

what happens if let say, i bid for $12.50 and my bid won...what's next? is it true i get to purchase that beg for $12.50 because for that price...it is still too good to be true for a branded bag !!

im not american therefore the amount have to be changed..and they stated there they prefer payment thru paypal..what is paypal? n how does it works if im not american?

Answer 1

There are lots of fakes on ebay, i think that you just have to be careful. well, first off, if you bid 12.50 and you won, then they will send you an invoice. the prices are converted automatically into the payment of your choice. yes, The price you win it at is the price that they have to give it to you for. It is a binding contract between seller and buyer. Paypal is the secure company in which most of the transactions across ebay take place. it is an ebay company, so that is the one that is most commonly used. It doesn't matter if you are american or not, you can still link paypal through your bank account or credit card, you will just be listed as a non-US verified member. paypal will automatically change the monetary value for you. I am a seller on ebay, and I have dealt with several international buyers.

send me the address or item number and I will look it over, [e-mail]
