I have not yet done so as yet, but plan to purchase an iPod with my new PayPal account. What do you think is a good one to buy? Any suggestions please? cd

Once I was into making jewelry and I bought some items for jewelry making off Ebay and it was what I expected. I bought some craft wire once and it wasn't what I expected. I bought a Paint Shop Pro 8 package from Ebay it was what I expected. So far everything was good and it came right on time no problem. The wire was fine it just wasn't on a spool it was just little rolls of pieces.

How long did you have to wait for your things to arrive? Did they come quickly?

I've bought several items like nutritional powders, cosmetics and perfume. The items were always what I expected. I always do research ahead of time to determine what the price would be if I were to buy the item somewhere else. I am a bargain hunter and I factor in the shipping and handling also to make sure what I am bidding on is a bargain. I only buy new products. I've never been burned. I would like to figure out what I can sell on ebay to make $ from my home. That would be the ticket.

I have bought lots of items over the years from ebay including a couple of digital cameras. I have had very few problems. Just be sure to buy from someone with a high rating and if you use paypal which gives you a measure of protection in case you don't receive the item, then you should be fine.

i have purchased several things off eBay in the last 2-3 years. I have purchased everything from Jewelry to iPods. You should look at the users feedback before purchasing an item however you should always ask for a tracking number. Any Feedback under 99.5% you should not consider purchasing from.

I have been selling on ebay since 2002 and buying things more often now. I have found that some things that I buy are not what I thought they would be and I was disappointed. Some ebay sellers offer a return policy and they will let your return your item if you receive and just don't like it. I offer a return policy on my items that I sell that if a buyer has a problem with an item bought from me they can contact me. I do give refunds if I myself have made a mistake.
