I am used to go on the ebay website everyday. It's a web site which propose a lot of auctions.
For the buyer:
This international web site allows you to find products you want at avery low price. Some products are new, some others are used. There are many kinds of products:
Antiques & Art, Automotive, Books, Comics & Magazines, Clothing & Accessories, Coins, Collectables, PC & Video Gaming ,Computing, Consumer Electronics, Dolls, Doll Houses, DVDs, Film & TV, Industrial, Office & Wholesale, Jewellery & Watches, Mobile & Home Phones, Music, Photography, Pottery & Glass, Sports, Stamps, Tickets & Travel, Toys & Bean Bag Plush and Everything Else
The choice is very large because ebay works in 21 countries.
It is free for the seller. I usually buy body shop products and I find very good bargain.
Moreover, when you buy , you can be confident because each seller has a feedback rating to know if it's good or not.
Moreover, you can pay with paypal. It allows to pay in all over the world and to reduce time of shipping.
For the seller:
It's not free: there are to fees to pay to sell a product and fees to pay on the final price. Fees are importants but as ebay is very well know, sellers can do good deals. Moreover, sometimes, some fees are free.
With auctions, the problem is that sometimes people bid on products just to play and not to buy.
Ebay should change the registration of new ebayer, maybe by confirming with letters.
About, the site, it's very well designed and very attractive.
There is a page called My ebay wich allows the seller or the buyer to know all about the products he is selling or wishing.
How helpful would this review be to a person making a buying decision? Rating guidelines
Advantages: An easy way to sell your unwanted goods from the comfort of your own home and to bag a bargain Disadvantages: Timewasters who win your auctions and dont pay, scammers and high fees
