Do you think ebay is a good, cheap and safe way to buy stuff (sell) by also using paypal??

Yes, I have made over 30 purchases on ebay. I recommend PayPal, it is fast and secure. I have never purchased electronics on ebay, I personally wouldn't recommend it because the big box stores are always running specials and it is hard to get warranty by mail. I have purchased computer games, ceramics, coins, stamps, books, including 2 purchases out of the USA. I only purchase from sellers that have been on ebay for at least a year and have at least 90% rating, I prefer to purchase from "power sellers" if I can. I hope to some day sell on ebay and would probably only take PayPal because it is immediate, secure and you don't have to mess with checks or money orders. Hope this helps.

Sure. Just remember buyer beware and be careful about the sellers. Read feedbacks carefully and look for SquareTrade, BBB online, etc. Remember that 99 percent of electronics products have voided warranties simply because they are sold on E-bay. Manufacturers like to protect their merchants. Some sellers offer their own warranties or, in many cases, you can purchase warranties. I bought all the A/V equipment for my truck (which I also bought on e-Bay!), saved a grand or two on $4,000 of electronics. And PayPal is a great way to pay. Instead of your CC info going to hundreds of merchants, your info stays in one place so less risk. Plus PayPal has built in purchase protection.

Yea, you totally can trust the eBay! It's a most common used online bid of buying items. What else do you think would be better?? Trust me I've been using it for a long time.

You can usually be safe with eBay as long as you check seller feedback; but always beware. If you are looking to save money, you wont do much different as a store if it's brand new. If it's used or refurbished, you can usually save a bit.

properly you'll understand if it would not artwork interior the first few days it truly is why they grant you with like 7 days to go back a used activity. no longer in reality r they more good value, you are able to get a 5% lower price once you've a gamestop card on all used video games, and, in case your feeling mischevious, you ought to purchase the game used, beat it interior seven days, and go back it for finished cost and likely get yet another used activity. it truly is like blockbuster except its frowned upon.... like masturbating in an plane bathing room, fantastically after 9/11 even as easily everyone were given so smooth.

If you play your cards right - e-bay is a good way to buy lots of things..... you have to be smart - connect with people - check star ratings.... communication is the key. I've bought many things - never got burned....
