Buying Phone Off E-Bay ... HELP!?

Question

So I have never bought anything from the internet before, and I want some people who are experienced with these kind of things to help mee.

I want to buy this phone but I'm not sure if it's a good deal or not, so can someone or some people do a background check on the seller and the description used for the product to be good or not?

Answer 1

I would suggest that you review their feedback to see how satisfied other customers have been. Also, make sure you understand their refund policy.

Ask all the questions you can before you buy to make sure you have covered all aspects.

Answer 2

Answer 3

i have just checked it out and it looks good to me. The seller has no neg feed backs which is excellent. Ask the seller if there is still warranty left on the phone? I say but it, i have never had any troubles buy anything through ebay.

Answer 4

only if the seller has a reputation of selling things such as a gold star or "powerseller" symbol on the upper right side..his reputation seems ok since he hasn't had any negatives but he's still pretty new...there's 4 days until the auction ends so i suggest searching around and maybe you will find with a better reputation...its a good deal anyway but keep looking

Answer 5

Looks okay but there are a couple of things to check.

The seller implies that it works but he doesn't come right out and say it. He should have said that the phone is fully functional. Ask him about how it works.

Ask what the shipping cost is to your address. Get the seller to quote you a number. Ask about shipping insurance.

Ask about any warranty and return policy.

Make sure to pay with either a credit card or through paypal.

A low number of feedbacks doesn't necessarily mean anything. Everyone has to start at the beginning on ebay.

Ebay does not allow sellers to lie. So for anything stated in his auction description and for any emails that he sends, ebay will make him live by his words.
