Default eBay

About a year ago I've seen so many news reports saying how sellers were defrauding their customers by not giving them what they paid for. I am an eBay user and I havent had any problems with that, I hope I never do. I just want to tell you that if you buy from ebay, buy from a trusted seller, one with a lot of positive feedback because some of the people that defrauded their customers were never found, I know you do not want to end up that way.

But how do we know he is a trusted seller..Now that there are thousands of stores on eBay it is really confusing

It is turning out to be like a fish market...

Look for really postive feedback like I said above. Read their feedback, as much as you can. Even contact the seller, I have never bought anything from anyone under 300 positive feedback. Well that was the lowest, I have only 5 positive feedback, thats the number of items I've bought All positive, no negative.

well of course ebay never defrauds anyone, its just the sellers that use ebay to sell their items, they are the one to blame, not ebay, the site or company

I haven't bothered with ebay for a few months since I sold my interest in the online shopping mall I ran. But I never had any real horror stories to mention.

Just try to research deeper about the seller. Try to know what other items are they selling. Aside from reading their feedbacks, try to contact them regarding the product that you want.
