Advantages: Good way to declutter or grab a bargain.
Disadvantages: Non-existent customer service.

I have been using ebay now for longer than I'd like to admit and yes, it does have its advantages. There is the excitement of bidding on items, the freedom of shopping from home without restricting hours and the opportunity to grab a bargain. But is it always a bargain? I'd like to say yes, but I fear, not always. I have bought so much stuff on ebay that has either ended up back on ebay or in a charity shop. Is it really worth it? Is one man's junk ...
...to grab genuine bargains. For example, I just sold a 100% silk top to the value of £40 for only £5, so someone out there has got themselves a great buy and I have cleared some space from my cupboards. It's also great for finding things which are difficult to get a hold of, retro stuff or car parts or whatever you may need- it's probably on ebay. Plus, you can sell your junk you no longer need and get some cash for it, great! Thankfully, ebay operates ... Read review

I was recently bidding on an Adidas tracksuit for myself.....for the gym, cos I'm on a diet ya know!! lol Well anyways, the bidding went up to about £16.50 and the with about 15 hours or so to go the seller withdrew it from sale!! It was listed for with a starting ...
...happy with £16.50 why not use the buy it now feature???? I would have been well happy with £16.50, seeing as I bought a brand new one last month for just £20!! Back to the review...... I think with the credit crunch more people are using ebay as a way of earning themselves a bit of cash...nothing wrong with that, but my how the prices have changed since I was using it about 3 years ago. You can still pick up some great bargains though and it is a ... Read review

Hi I started using Ebay a few year ago and it has paid for my family holiday since 2004 Normal on a sunday i will go to the car boot sales early in the moring and buy what i think will sell, the best way to see what sells is to go on to the Ebay site and spend a few days surfing the site to see what sells best, i think you will be surprised at what you can get good money for, things such as Lego certain kids figures, fishing tackle, clothes, books, ...

Ebay. Everyone talks about how wonderful, or annoying, ebay is/can be. I have to admit that I thought ebay was a great thing when I was looking for a prom dress. Got a nice red ball gown for £58. However, I've found getting electrical items can be a bit of an issue. I was looking for a new mobile and I found a brand new one with loads of accessories for £116. The problem was that the chargers and phones had a tendency to be faulty according to the ...
...over here in the UK. Another thing was that it was coming from Hong Kong and so the parcel could get delayed at customs and I would have to have paid the customs fee. Layout & Design I think the layout and the design of the ebay website is quite good. They've put the adverts for products and the columns in the right places and they've used bright colours so some of their products grab your attention immediately. Navigation I find ... Read review
