I never could get into Ebay, I have ordered threw there three times and not had any luck so far.
First order the dude put the wrong thing in the box and his response to me stating that is well you could send it back and once I get it I will send it back to you. After that I asked would he pay shipping and he went no that is your job it is your item, oh I did forget to say that you would have to cover shipping of your item back didn't I. Needless to say I get my money back and hawked the radio that I got to a pawn shop... I guess though it is quite easy to mix up speakers and a radio....
After that I ordered a coat from a designer my friend had ordered one from. A week later I get the box in the mail and the coat isn't finished hell there wasn't even any filling to sew into it. I contacted the seller and he went I am sorry I accidentally sent you the wrong box I will just give you your money back, I responded with what about the coat, he responded with he isn't making them anymore...
Third would be the lost shipment... I ordered a PSP game and the dude never shipped it and said it was a 'lost shipment' and that he couldn't do anything about it. I had to fight on that one and lucky me I wasn't the only one fighting since he apparently sold the same game fifteen times and well had fifteen complaints... got my money back luckily there.
So after all that I don't use ebay for much unless I have no other choice. I have no luck and you can't say it wasn't a one hit no luck that was three times trying it... So yeah I am glad some people have luck with it like my brother and my cousin and others I know. I will stick with craigslist, amazon.com, and thrift stores for certain stuff and others I will ask around till I find someone that is up to the project I have in mind.
