I’ve been using eBay for a while, but only recently came across a multiple item auction where the seller had a few dozen of the same item she was selling. I’m baffled about how these work, though. Can you explain how these multiple-item Dutch auctions work on eBay?
I got an email from an eBay buyer saying that he had a question for me about an auction, but it’s not an auction I’m running. Will I get into trouble with eBay if I don’t answer the question? I mean, I don’t really understand what’s going on?
I’ve been trying to add some new stamps to my collection by looking on eBay, and while I am amazed at the range and variety of what’s available for us philatelists, I’m finding it very tedious to have to be logged in and watching for those last few minutes of the auction to ensure someone else doesn’t win at the very last second. Is that just part of buying things on eBay? I also don’t understand how auctions work when they’re selling more than a single item. Can you enlighten an old man on this newfangled stuff?
As I write extensively about TV and satellite programming, a couple of people have told me I should sign up for an affiliate program and make some money based on my recommendations. They suggest Commission Junction, but I can’t figure out how the site works. Help!
I’ve been poking around on eBay and am astonished at the range of products available. From books that’ve been out of print for decades to celebrity signatures, and more, it’s awesome! But I have heard that a lot of what’s for sale on Ebay is a rip-off and that a lot of people get taken. How can I avoid the bad guys?
Seems like not a week goes by without some sort of story in the paper about a computer security breech, identity theft, or scams or other rip-offs. It’s enough to make one avoid shopping online, except that it’s so darn convenient! What’s your opinion? Should I avoid shopping online entirely, or are there tips you can offer on how to stay safe while still going to the virtual mall?
Maybe I’m the only one who has this problem, but I swear, I get email from eBay’s Half.com every two or three days telling me that something on my wish list is now available. Which wouldn’t be bad, except every time it’s the same item. How do I make it stop??
I’ve been doing research for my support company (we help people get their PC to talk with their gadgets) and am curious if you can tell me what toys, devices and gadgets are the hot products being bought on eBay?
