What do you think about ebay do you think it is a safe site to buy items from or do you think that they are just trying to scame money from people. I think it is kinda safe. When ever I buy some thing from there I check the persons rating and there feed back to see what other people had to say about them first. And if they didnt get good feed back then I dont buy from them.. What are your thought is Ebay safe or not safe?

I love Ebay and have never been scammed . Like anything else on the computer you are taking a risk when you pay for something that the other person is trying to scam you but with my experience Ebay is a pretty good site and they have a variety of things to choose from , making it easy and convienient to order from them . I agree with you that when you check out the individual that you are ordering from will help out and if there is something you don't trust then you just don't bother with that seller .

before this i always sell things on ebay.i met a lot of joybidders who just wasted my time without ant serious intention of buying your items.i just started to buy things from ebay recently.that also i bought sellers who receive 100 % positive feedbacks.even if the seller receive less than 100 % i wouldn't wanna consider buying because i do not want to take the risk of letting my money being scammed.i still do not think ebay is a safe place.there are still a lot of cheating cases happening

It's pretty safe. I buy and sell on eBay and I personally have never been scammed by sellers but I have been by some buyers! Look at their feedback. If it's really low then you want to think twice about bidding on their item. But if they have a 99% or so - look over the feedback real good. Just because someone got a bad feedback mark does not mean they are bad sellers or scammers. People can leave whatever feedback they decide whether it is fair or not. Truthful or not. I have seen some carzy negative feedbacks left by other sellers who maybe brought from them - just to leave them a negative - just to try & ruin them. Competition. And I have seen someone leave a negative feedback because they were upset at a slow response to an email - it took the seller 4 hours to get abck to them...c'mon people - ebay sellers also have day jobs & aren't at the computer all day. Someone could have a 99% feedback with one or two neg's but over 500 positives. Read the negs and judge for yourself.
