Shopping On Ebay

Ebay is one of the largest sites on the internet. Ebay is also the largest auction site on the internet.

Just about any type of item can be found here. Not everything though. Ebay does not sell firearms, pornographic material,or anything remotely controversial or considered illegal.

The number one thing to look for when bidding or buying an item is to check the seller's feedback. A good seller on Ebay will have a lot of positive feedback. Outstanding seller's will have feedback of 100%. Showing they are trusty and reliable.

Never try to buy and item from a seller that has zero feedback or just joined the site. This can be a sign of a shady seller who is just trying to get money and then disappear like a ghost.

Online Shopping Tips

I created this blog for shopping tips and online shopping. Today, more and more people shop online. Shopping online is great for some products such as music, small products,ebooks,and other products that are lightweight or downloadable.

However, some products such as cars, homes, or clothes may be difficult to look over or try on just by looking at pictures and descriptions onlinne. Items like these are still mostly bought in brick and mortar stores. These are items that need to be looked at or tried on in person.

Heavy items will sometimes cost you more in shipping than the retail price of the item.
So, you have to definitely check out the shipping and handling before confirming an order.

So, shop smart and compare prices including the shipping before making your purchase
