I have always been taught to save your money and buy something you want, when you can afford it. In the case of big ticket items, like a car, make sure you can afford the payment and wait until the car has been on the market for awhile, to take advantage of the rebates and discounts.

**EBAY-PAYPAL-WORDS OF WISDOM**

I just got burned for $1,800 for selling and shipping an expensive watch, internationally. When the legal credit card person got the bill, they claimed an unauthorized charge and I had to pay the money back and will never see the watch again. The buyer-bidder, apparently stold an email address and credit card and asked me to ship the watch to another country. I eventually received a message from the actual email owner, who gave me the information that her address was misused.

The moral of this story is do not ship anything to any address, other than the one who paid for the product and paypal will not cover anything under this scnerio or if the sale is over $1,000. I will not sell anything in the future internationally or ship to anywhere other than the address of who pays for the product.
