OMG YES!!!
If in doubt - check out the sellers feedback score - if STILL in doubt - don't buy; whatever you wanted WILL come up again.
I've been eBaying for about 2 years and have never been ripped off - my friend eBayed twice and got ripped off BOTH TIMES!
When I asked her if she'd looked at the sellers feedback - she said "What's that?" DUR -
As with any shopping experience - you can shop safely if you know what you are doing.
My friends 'sellers' only took cash or cheque - I look for sellers that use 'Paypal'
- it protects me for up to £500.00 per transaction - and as most of my transactions are less than twenty quid I never need to worry.
Good luck...

I do. however, i'm a bit of a binge bidder. I won't go to ebay for a while and then I'll go in and make loads of bids.
I used to live in canada and the postage costs killed the fun. Also, since most of the stuff came from the states it would get stuck at the border and that wasn't fun either. now that I live in the UK - I love it. I buy it one day and rarely it takes more than 2 days to get to my door
Lately i bought some funky kids clothing. however, I have bought and sold almost anything and everything.

i'm surprisingly particular it fairly is secure because of the fact hundreds of thousands of human beings purchase from Ebay standard. i could start up out by way of bidding on luggage and then as quickly as you get used to it you ought to purchase an editorial of outfits. If the outfits is in reliable and new condition then provide them a reliable evaluate and notice what else they sell. i could advise to a minimum of wash it as quickly as, besides the fact that in the event that they say it fairly is new.

Yeah it's OK, but you have to make sure you pay through pay pal and they have good feedback ratings. We get allot of calls from people who have been ripped off from eBay sellers. So it's OK as long as your care full

No, not yet. I'd be more inclined to once there was a way to be sure that the item you were buying wasn't hot - and to ensure that you actually got what you paid for.
