Answer 1

i normally buy things off of ebay.... but make sure before you get it you can return it if you do not like them =]

Answer 2

First read the whole thing from top to bottom and make sure there are no damages and then make sure there is a return policy and finally find out what the item is and look at other sites to see if you are getting a good price.

Answer 3

ONLY get things from E_BAy if the shipping is clearly shown.

It may endup to high and not worth buying.

Answer 4

I love eBay, when i got the extra money ill buy stuff off eBay as much as i can. Look at the sellers ranking and their comments. If they have allot of negatives don't buy from them because they might stick you on something. If they have allot of positive feedbacks then i would buy from them. Just read every little think carefully... Good luck hope you get your glasses that you like!!!

Answer 5

check their feedback score, and use good judgement. 99% of what ive bought, and thats alot, has been packaged very nicely.you just have to see that its a trustable seller.

Answer 6

I buy lots of stuffoff of e-bay just make sure the seller has good feedback most the sellers will pack glass really really well so it dosent get broke

Answer 7

obviously the shipper would have to make sure they are shipped properly to insure they dont break. you can get insurance off ebay as well incase they break or something goes wrong. i dont think it would be that big of a risk. if you want them that bad, and they are a good price, get them. you may love it. i buy off ebay all the time. get good products.

Answer 8

Be thorough..check out your seller and ask ALL questions BEFORE you bid. Good luck

Answer 9

There are so many variables, whos selling it, from where, how muchit is. It is a little risky but I woudn't worry about anything. You can report any problems to ebay, like if its broken or anything and they will handle it.

Answer 10

check his feed back before you buy them if it's good then give it a try.i buy from ebay and use paypal all the time and have never had a problem with any seller's i have delt with. not everyone on ebay is a scammer!!

Answer 11

Never buy anything off eBay or use PayPal, you are heading down into serious trouble. Be prepared to be suckered and scammed.
