Let's keep it simple. I love the eBay way. I love the ability to find virtually any kind of item and bid for it. This is basically my little schpeel of 2 common boo boo's of eBaying.
1) Bidding. Think about it folks, the more you bid, the higher the ending price. Personally I like to get a bargain. I thought that is the whole aim at bidding on eBay.
So if you want to bid on an item, 1st identify what the highest price is you are willing to pay for that item. Then carefully monitor the auction. I use the last 30 seconds to place my bid. This allows me time to place the bid and limited time for others to out bid you. I have won many auctions this way. However, if the bidding gets to high for me by that time I just don't bid and move on to another auction. So STOP bidding until near the end. You will get many deals this way.
2) Once you win an auction you need to pay for the item. Once you pay for the item the seller should leave you feedback. Then they should ship the item to you. When you recieve the item you should submit feedback for them. That is how it was meant to be done.
Now, the sellers seem to be holding off waiting for you to submit feedback first. That is just wrong. Let's play fair people. It is give and take. I always leave feedback when a bidder pays. Too many people have not left feedback after I left them positive feedback. That is just wrong.
I know this sounds trivial but it is how it was meant to be done.
So let's get back to the basics and play fair. Happy eBaying!
