For me I don't find it too difficult to buy stuff on ebay. There are things that make the process easier though.
1 - if you don't have it already, get a paypal account as most sellers take paypal ( be wary of people who need a postal money order as you loose all ability to recover your money if the deal is fraudulent )
2 - read the description COMPLETELY and make sure you understand what you are bidding on, the shipping costs and any other charges that might be added. Some items are refurbished and not new or may be broken and are being sold for parts only.
3 - understand that some items are popular and so the bidding may end up being close to what you would pay if you went to a store and bought the item or even more than retail if the item is in short supply. Be prepared to bid accordingly.
4 - once you put in a bid you have entered into a contract to pay for item if you win the bid. Only if you have a very good reason ( such as you bid $400 on something you really wanted to bid $4 on ) should you be retracting your bid. So bid on an item but be prepared to pay for it if you win the bid.
I hope this helps you!
