I've only had a small amount experience with them.  and each time they kept me notified and did what they said they would do.

Most of the time it's been pretty good.  I only had one issue when the seller insisted I pay by Western Union even though I wanted to use Paypal and the fraud department had to get involved.

I have never used ebay and probably will not I just think there are much better sites available for those needs right now.

I've had positive experiences buying and selling on eBay.  The feedback rating feature seems to be a good idea because most people care about their reputation.  As a seller, I always ship with a tracking number so I have confirmation of delivery when the buyer receives their item.

I have enough experience that I know how to cover my own rear end.   :heart:
Have a great day!

I have been earning online for over 15 years and never seen anything that comes even close to what Ebay offers, so if you know better ones please do tell.

I have always had good experiences on ebay. My friends recently did not, do not sell internationally and you should be good to go!

I've been selling on eBay for a little over 12 years now. I've had very good experiences and maybe a hand full of bad experiences with customers. Over all, eBay is great when it comes to making a few extra bucks but some times their fees kill you! And then you have PayPal fees as well. They go hand in hand but I love selling and making my customers happy! Look me up on eBay! :) kim_rivas

I have buying and selling on Ebay for about 13 years and have really never had a problem.  The biggest thing is know what you are buying, ask questions, inspect pictures carefully and if it doesn't feel right don't bid.  I have only had 1 buyer that was a potential problem and I just cancelled the sale.  She didn't read the ad or inspect the pictures until after she bought it (there was buy it now).  There was a flaw (hence the great price).  My one gripe is how many regular retailers have stores on Ebay.  They can ruin the market for used items when they start dumping last years model at discounted prices.

While I tend to have the mentality of "Hope for the Best. Expect the Worst", I have had some pretty decent experiences with eBay.

Well, I've never had any problem with e-bay or any of the sellers on there.
