In my year of buy things from Ebay I've noticed that everything i buy form Hong Kong is the cheapest prices i've seen anywhere. Like the other day i bought a bluetooth usb dongle for $1.25 and i've seen it at the so called "Always low price" Wal-Mart for $15.00! I've bought things like a single LED for $.05 and 10 pre-wired with 12v resistors for $3.00! And they work great, about 4 weeks ago i had to buy an SD card reader at Wal-Mart for $11.36 because i lost my old one but i just bought one today for $.65! And sometimes on Ebay i buy headphone splitters and adapters for $.01-$.20 each! I guess that's how Wal-Mart makes their money.

I put together Native American crafts and often will buy from Ebay for a fraction of the cost (if I can even find the item elsewhere) . I will buy such things as I can use in necklaces for $3 to $7 each which I put into necklaces tht I sell for $15 each. I also have to put leather cord and beads into them so I do not make as much as you might think plus I have to pay for vendors fees and gas, eating, tolls etc. A few months ago I purchased a GPS unit for $82.00 including shipping, this unit woud sell for over $250.00 around here so I got a really good bargain on that.

wow, that's is really cheap and a lot savings too. i have never tried buying online, but i have created an account at ebay. i dont really know how to make it there. i guess i have to read more about it. that would make a good income too, buy it on ebay and sell it back there right? or at other online shopping sites.
