E-BAY: how realiable is it??? - Page 2

Bridge of Clay · 05-05-2005, 03:10 PM

Hey Colin: no worries. I didn't bid on a specif item yet, I'm just browsing through SanDisk SD Cards 512MB or 1GB... The bad thing is that when it's close to the time out, the prices are getting too expensive for me. (I wish I could pay 1 USD though!).

Mullet, the ones I asked questions didn't have reserve prices. Let me ask you this: when I buy through pay pal, who pays the fee for using it? the seller or the buyer? If it's the buyer, how much is it ?

I was told SanDisk is the best brand... I don't mind buying another really good brand.

Thanks!

There is no fee for using Paypal, Paypal is nothing more than a medium between you and the guy your paying. You open up a paypal account, which is free and you fill in two modes of payment. They can either be two bank accounts, two credit cards (debit cards), or one of each. When you pay using paypal it will give you the option of choosing either of the things you have have chosen. If you use a credit card its instant, if you use a bank account, you send an electronic check - which takes the same amount as a real check to clear. If you use a credit card the only extras fees youll pay is the interest from the card. If you use a debit card then you wont pay anything extra, same with bank accounts. Paypal has a paid service if youd like to sign up for that. Now, paypal give you the option of transfering money from your stuff (bank accts, credit card/debit cards) unto your paypal account, so instead of withdrawing from... where ever, it takes that money from your paypal deal. Again, thats up to you - i dont like using it.

i don't trust ebay, so i don't use it

I really like ebay, I have used it since 1998. Most people value their reputations, I would say 99 percent and don't want to sell crap. If they have a good record then I would say go with it.

Sorry to go off topic, but Carrrie, that's the cutest thing I've heard in a long time!!!! Tyler is such a sweetie!!!

He is, he cracks me up. I just thought that was adorable. I was thankful for the flowers over the worms, but I am sure he would've liked it the other way around.

In looking at some of the ones there, they look pretty decent. The sellers seem to be legit.
