I have a question about EBAY.com ??

Question

i seriously never tried buying or selling from it, when i want to

buy an item, i go to amazon.com , but sometimes becomes

a big difference in price , so i just wanna ask this:

how do i know the person i bought the item from is

really going to send me it? i mean what if a guy

stole me or something .... i mean i know about the feedback

but is the feedback the only proof for you??

if you may help me....you'll be vary thankful

Answer 1

If they have mostly positive feedback and they have a lot of feedback you should be good.  To make sure you don't get screwed be sure to use paypal because they will help you get your money back  if your scammed.  eBay also has many things they can do to help you out if the person scammed you.

Answer 2

some 1 never sent me my thing to me and i reported him to ebay and them gave me a refund! :) good luck and this has only happened to me one time and i buy alot of stuff on ebay!

Answer 3

THAT'S WHY YOU LOOK AT THE SELLERS FEEDBACK BEFORE BUYING ANYTHING.

THE MORE SALES AND GOOD FEEDBACK MEANS THE MORE YOU CAN TRUST THEM.

I HAVE BOUGHT  AND SOLD LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF ITEMS ON EBAY.

TRY NOT TO BUY STUFF FROM A PERSON WITH UNDER 100 FOR THEIR RATING CUZ THAT'S USUALLY A GOOD EXPERIENCED EBAY USER.

GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY BIDDING.

Answer 4

You just have to trust sometimes, Ebay has ways of disputing things. It has happened to me before. That's why I always read feedback now. Read what others are saying about that person. I also have my own personal policy of only purchasing from people with at least 98% positive feedback and who have at sold at least 30 items. That is always my deciding factor on whether to bid or not.  I have hundreds of transactions in the past five years and only once have I been scammed. And Ebay helped me out a lot during that situation.

Good luck, its really fun.
