Step 2-
Review the
Seller's Feedback Number
|
|
Every time an item is bought on eBay, feedback about the transaction
is left by the buyer. The feedback
rating (% of positive feedback) ensures you are dealing with an
honest seller. A dishonest seller will be
quickly put out of business by negative feedback. EBay is one of
the safest ways to get the lowest
prices available on the market today.
|
By clicking on the item description (blue text), you will be taken
to the Item
Page. In the Seller Information box (as above), you will see the seller's ID,
and a number
in parenthesis. This number represents how many items the seller
has
bought or sold. You will also see the seller's % of positive
feedback directly
below the seller's ID.
Look for
a seller with a number greater than 50 in parenthesis, and a
positive feedback at 98% or greater. This
means there would only be 1
negative feedback left for 50 items sold. Analysis shows these are
the top
sellers, and you are certain to have a smooth transaction. You don't
get that
level of service in your local retail store!

Step 3-
Place Your
Buy It Now
Request
|
|
Click on the
Buy It Now
button for the item you would like to purchase. To
get to the
Buy it Now
button, click on the item description (blue text) of the
item you would like to purchase.
|
|
You will be asked to enter the eBay ID and password you created in
Step 2 above. Select PayPal as
your payment method, and provide a credit card number. PayPal is one
of the most secure payment
processing services available on the internet, using state of the
art encryption technology. They are
owned by eBay, so all information is confidential.
|
Complete the steps,
and your item will be on the way! You will receive an email
confirming
your purchase. You should hear from the seller within 24 hours.
