Hi I am from Philippines and I was about to purchase a laptop on Ebay. But I was thinking if the shipment will go safely to my address. Is anyone of you purchased an item at Ebay and received it safely to your location? Because I heard someone that he purchased from ebay and got only the box, yeah its only a box without the preferred items he actually bought.

I have bought a lot of things on Ebay and on the net from other companies and i have never had any problems, with an item like a laptop though I would take out postage insurans just in case...

Thank you for the reply. What kind of items have you purchased in and from what country are you from? Soon I will purchase some too in Ebay. Thanks again. =)

I have bought several things from e-bay in the past and have never had any problems. When buying from e-bay..... NEVER EVER buy from someone whose rating is less then 98.1, I personally never buy from anyone with less then 99. Good luck and happy bidding!

Thanks for the comment. I will do check the ratings first before I will buy an item. Again thank you.
