Bidding on and buying items online can be a rewarding experience. As an online consumer you will wish to conduct yourself as you would in making a purchase anywhere. Here is some information which will help you through the process.
Know The Items You Are Bidding For
Items listed on this site are most often posted by individuals, and sometimes small companies. While we try and regulate our site and remove objectionable material or listings, we cannot be responsible for regulating or verifying every item for sale. You need to be aware of the potential for misleading statements or fraud of a listed item, or the possibility of purchasing an illegal product. Search for bargains and good reputation sellers. See what price similar items have sold for in the past and do not over bid. Thoroughly check item description, seller’s rules before biding and contact sellers for any additional information if necessary. You should realize that completed auction is a binding contract. You should not back off of an item you won; it would affect your feedback rating negatively. Be prompt to contact and pay for the item you won, this shall build up your positive feedback rating. Enjoy and be prepared to pay for what you won
You can minimize your risk by e-mailing the seller with specific questions related to the item and checking out the seller's feedback report compiled by other individuals who have purchased from this person/company.
Also, consider using safe, easy-to-use escrow services at the end of auction. Escrow services such as Escrow.com provide security by keeping custody of your funds and releasing them to the seller only when specified conditions are met.
