    Default E Bay

    How trust worthy is E Bay... I want to get some Xenon balbs, and some clear corners and stuff...
    never really bought ANYTHING offline before, but one time when i sent 70 us to a car accesories place on sep the 10th... well the next day we all know what happened.. and i never got my package... and they woudnt respond to my emails!!
    so if i do buy something of EBay can you guys tell me anything that i need to watch out for or anything like that ?
    thanks

    Yo Conner, what up duude?
    Ebay is good, just make sure that the seller has a good rating and doesnt like have any negative feedback or shit.

    And make sure he doesnt have sunglasses next to his name cus that means he has changed his alias in the last month.

    I make more money off of Ebay than at my whack ass job...

    It's good if you are careful. Make sure that there is a good rating by the seller, and that he has no glasses. Also, always email the seller and see how long it takes to reply. Ask them anything, just so that you know he isn't a scammer. If the replies are quick and appropriate, you have a good seller.

    Oh and make sure that if things are expensive, get them sent insured to you. Canada post stepped on a freakin laptop motherboard, cracked enough that I couldnt fix it, and ended up paying me for it.....

    Do not just send cash and hope for the best, use paypal or COD or something similar.
    You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.
