Want to answer more questions in the Technology category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Computers?
ok with ebay you havto make sure that you read everything carefully, in some cases the sellers will claim something like "all machines arent tested" which makes you automaticaly doubt that most of em even work. and just so u know there is no way to give items back 101
one more advise is that if you want something badly you have to wait untill the last 30 seconds of the auction then bid on it
ALWAYS AND I MEAN ALWAYS buy buyers protection just in case you pay and never get the items
hope this helped

i actually brought the laptop im on right now off of ebay. my advice to you is this : dont buy from a private seller..a lot of companies actually sell stuff on ebay..i got mine from a company called
"the laptop group " or something.. i forget
loook at the feedback rating..if the seller has aa rating of like 95% then your good to go..
also check if the seller is a power seller..dont buy from someone who is new at this.

i think you can buy some sort of insurance for when you buy stuff off ebay. i would recomend getting that. also check to see what people have said about that seller

ehh.. My dad bought a computer off Ebay once..
I came home one day with a Police man's card on my front door.
I called it and found out that the computer my dad bought was stolen in California. He paied 2,000 dollars for it and it didn't get refunded.

i've had a little experience with ebay ..i*ve bought things from there and my brother has sold things from there so yeaa.. now a laptops a big thing to buy from there so before you buy it from there look around to see how much youd be saving look online at stores like best buy because you also have to pay for shipping which might be a lot...now something else someone i know tried to buy a tv from there and bought it but instead of in being a tv it was just a picture of a tv so make sure you know what your buying/looking at and look a the seller's feedback make sure its good because otherwise there a good chance something might go wrong
good luck!!*
