I began shopping on Eay when my four daughters began ice skating lessons back in 2002. After getting the most amazing deals on really good high-end skates; I began to shop regularly on ebay and was blown away by the deals I could get on everything from clothing to furniture to some old antique presidents my husband had been collecting from childhood!!! After a few months as a buyer; I became a seller. I find it very difficult to walk into Walmart or Target and pay high retail prices when I can get anything I want off Eay for a better deal! Family members are now coming to me and asking me if I can find items for them on Ebay!! If you find or know the brand of an item you would like to purchase you can enter that brand name on Ebay and search by size, color, etc. until you find what you want and the price is usually well below what the retail guys charge. Some tips to remember are: check the feedback score of the seller- I won't buy from any seller with less than 99.9% feedback and have never had a problem. Wait until an auction is almost over if it is an item you really want; then place your bid in the last few minutes. You can really SAVE big by shopping on Ebay instead of retail!!!
