INTRODUCTION TO BUYING AND SELLING ON EBAY

Ebay is in my opinion the absolute best place on the internet to get a deal on ANY item. If you have never
explored Ebay then you are in for a real treat. Before you begin dealing in this new world I want to make a
couple of points that are CRITICAL to your Ebay future.
1. Sign-up for a
Paypal was recently purchased by
for auctions on Ebay. The benefits of Paypal are that you don't have to wait for days to get paid or to make
payments, thus you can finish a transaction quickly.
Paypal does charge a small fee for their services but it is well worth it. You will not have to write out a
check, deposit a check, get a money order, or mail anything. Having a Paypal account also allows you to
accept payment from people who want to pay by credit card.
If you paid for this guide through Paypal then you are already a member. You can verify your address and
setup your bank account with them and start accepting and making payments quickly. Just login to your
Paypal account and follow the directions to do it.
2. Develop your feed back rating.
Your Ebay reputation is based on feedback you receive from other Ebay members after you have completed
a transaction. It is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to keep your feedback positive. The higher your
feedback number goes the better people feel about dealing with you. The same goes for you when buying
from someone on Ebay. Look at their feedback number. The higher the better. You can click on the number
and read what others have said about that particular member. Below is a picture of what you will see when
looking at an auction page. Note the red lines pointing to the buyer and sellers feedback rating. This is what
you want to keep going up on your own account and what you want to look at before buying from someone
else.
P.S. marke is my personal Ebay membership. As you can see I have developed a rating of 165.
Buying on Ebay is a legally binding contract between you and the seller. REMEMBER THAT! Don't bid
if you don't intend to buy. Don't bid and then buy it somewhere else unless you know that you are not going
to get it.
Ebay charges sellers fees for listing their goods. Plus, you are charged a fee based on the final selling price.
If you bid and then don't pay the seller is still charged the fees by Ebay and has to file a complaint with
Ebay about you and then request a credit to get his/her money back.
If the complaint is filed then Ebay will send you an email telling you this and give you 10 days to work
things out. If you don't then Ebay will issue you a warning when the final credit request is given. You get 3
warnings and you are gone from Ebay forever.
