Hi everyone,
I agree that you had better be informed before bidding. I saw a "rubber" doll with a replaced inappropriate body sell for $132.00 a couple of days ago. With that body, it wasn't worth $1.32 in my opinion. I feel sorry for the person who bought it. I've nicely informed a few sellers they were incorrect in their listing descriptions, and without exception they were not happy to hear from me, so I don't even try anymore.
I've also been stung on some things I wasn't really familiar with. Caveat Emptor!
Kelly,
Ohio

Thank You Barry & Sara, I was seeking a Security Camera Kit, Ebay sellers were
selling them for over $500.00. The store was only wanting $300.00. The same
thing when I wanted a Playstation 2 game, Ebay wanted $69.00, and Walmart only
wanted $34.88.

Not everything....I have found some GREAT bargains on Ebay, but like every where
else, you do have to shop around. Also, when shopping Ebay...the one important
thing to remember is: If there is ONE...there are MORE, so don't start to think
that you HAVE to get that one item you see and place a bid on it because you'll
never find that item again....odds are, you will....and cheaper!
I have been collecting old glass door knobs and old skeleton keys...and I've
found some of the best things yet on Ebay....and incredibly cheap! (even with
the shipping!)
