If you tell them the item was sold as is, two things may happen.\n1. They may lodge a paypal complaint if they paid by paypal. \n2. They will probably give you negative feedback.\nIf you are not too worried about either one do nothing.\nYou can offer a refund to them, less postage and listing fee. But you will only refund on receipt of your Kirby in exactly the same condition as it was when it left your house. You also should tell them, that the return postage is also not refundable. If they agree, then refund them when you get your kirby. If the kirby is not the same or condition, remember to take photos, of it because you have the photos from your auction to compare. Keep all your documentation regarding the auction as well. I think either way you go you will get a negative feeback especially if the refund doesn't go down well.

eBay provides the trading platform for sellers/buyers. They are not the sellers, but they establish a safe envorinment, because their business relies on the trust of the buyers and sellers.\n\nHere are the things to check when you buy from ebay sellers:\n1. read their feedback\n2. if the seller sold similar things before, check if there are feedback from past buyers of the items\n3. payment method. Paypal is preferred since you get extra protection by Paypal which has dispute resolution procedure in place. Avoid sellers who only accept Western Union.\n4. any guarantee or offere refund\n\nEach seller is different. Some uses loose description and items sold as-is, while others describe their items in great details and offer refund if not satisfied. You should read the item description carefully, including shipping charge (some sellers charge a lot for shipping to keep item price low).\n\nEbay has been my favorite place to shop for years. Good luck.

Give it some time.  The best way to check is to go to "My Ebay".  If you see it in your "selling" tab.  You're good to go.  Check the spelling too.  It'll immediately be in your "my ebay".  If it's not there, you didn't list it properly and have to do it all over again.

First of all be sure you are not overcharging for shipping and handling.  I notice a lot of sellers of late are doing that and their sales have gone down. Be reasonable on your shipping and state what it is or use the shipping calculator. Items with picture on the search do better I find.  I don't know how many items you list at a time, but limit it to 5 to 10--that way if they don't sell you are not hit with a big seller fee all at once.  Hang in there, some of my things will sell like crazy one time and next time, maybe none or just one.  Good luck.

a lot of ebay sellers will overcharge on shipping to keep the price of thier item lower. also, ebay doesn't charge fees on shipping like they do on the selling price of the item, and this way the seller loses less money.

I suggest you take the ebay tutorial and learn all about it.  No one can explain it all to you in detail.  You can start here:\nhttp://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/index.html\nhttp://pages.ebay.com/education/selling.html\nhttp://pages.ebay.com/university/\nhttp://pages.ebay.com/sitemap.html\n\nAnd, if you run into problems, go here:\nhttp://chatboards.ebay.com/chat.jsp?forum=1&thread=21\nIt is a chat room to help newbies and users with problems or questions.  I am a volunteer in that room as well.

if what you get from the seller is not what you were supposed to get, first you should try to email the seller and get it straightened out.\nIf that doesn't work, you can report them to ebay.

I am VERY interested but never did anything like this before.\n\nIn fact i do not even know how to use e-bay.  I did go to the site and looked at the specs.  Looks good to me.\n\nHow do I get in touch with you?  How much do you need from me now?  Then again in May?  Each month after that?

That is something you get to decide.\n\nOnce the item as been "sold", you are responsible to contact the buyer and arrange payment.  Most common method is a money order.  The buyer purchases the money order for the amount of the sale (shiping, etc) and sents it to you.  Then you mail the item.  Recommend you NOT take presonal checks as they can bounce, while a money order will not.\n\nOr you can set up a PayPal account.  When you set up an account, you give PayPal the information for your bank account.  When the deal of completed, the buyer contacts PayPal and has them transfer the sale price from their bank account to yours.  So as the money shows up, you ship them the item.  There is a small fee (something like 3%) to use PayPal.

By placing the item on Ebay, they entered into a contractual obligation to sell whether you have paid or not. However, there is no real recourse to force them to go through with it. You can report it to Ebay who will likely blow you off and leave negative feedback for the seller.

I love Ebay!!! I think it is especially safe if you use Paypal and get buyers with Buysafe insurance on the product. I have always received everything I have ordered in perfect condition. Read your descriptions carefully, save the ad until everything goes through and save all communications from the transaction from the seller and from you to the seller. Follow instructions carefully and if it seems to good to be true it may be. If it is a company search them on the Better Business Bureau website. I have only had 1 semi bad experience on Ebay but it was resolved.

Depending on how you paid for the items, you either submit a problem claim thru paypal on their site. They offer a guarantee for up to a certain amount. You can also contact ebay to get the sellers personal information.

Here is the ebay page about various ebay fees for a seller:\nhttp://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/fees.html\n\nNormally, the seller pays: \n1. listing fee (to put the item for auction) - this has several options that could have additional fees.\n2. final value fee (when the item is sold)\n\nFor a item in $5-15 range, the most plain listing costs $.60 (assuming your starting price is in that range), and 5.25% of closing price.\n\nThen if you use Paypal to accept credit card payment, then Paypal charges transaction fees.
