Had any problems? How do they prevent fraud?

Dos Tips for Ebay-

1. Dont buy anything from outside the US. Makes it harder to sue em. My policy is dont buy anything thats too expensive from anyplace you cant affort to fly to...vigilante justice.

2. Pay with PayPal.They have an option on there where they insure 100% satisfaction. Plus if your screwed paypal/ebay will shut the thieving fuckers down.

3. Read the user feedback. You can tell real quick by reading what everyone says about their buying experience. You can also see if they are a verified paypal user etc etc so that your buying from someone you can track down [see tip 1].


All in all ebay has been a good to me. Peaches is just jealous I outbid her for those "lesbian devil girl shirts". If your anuber ebayer you can figure out an angle to make some serious cash and also drive some traffic to your sites...which aint a bad think considering youve got millions of qualified buyers looking at those page.
