I am very busy college student major in the medicine field who work (Yay!!! 6 more years of studying to go) and study for 80-90 hours per week, yet my love for the paranormal work has never been passionate then ever. I have dedicated my the remaining 1 or 2 hours of my precious pleasure time in stead of getting drunk of local bar I wrote guides like in the spirit of helping the novice to understand and find your unique path of magick. There is no right or wrong if it comes from the mouth of others. You decide for yourself, after magick and Wicca and Voodoo,etc. are systems of beliefs. There is no official correct way. You just have to listen both to your heart and mind and decide to yourself. And it's okay to make mistake, but please don't be afraid to make one because you are your greatest teacher.
You have many resources at your fingertips that you did know of. For example, God, he love you for who you are because he has created you. How else can you explain the complication of your respiratory and cardiovascular system, how intricate your neurons can be. Your guides, animal totems. Anyone have at least one. Your guardian angels. You see, these entities especially your creator does not charge you a thing except for your genuine and belief in them as well as commitment to love and light.
So when you feel like you stuck and no seller can provide reasonable answer after you just spend $500 dollars on a cheap piece of wholesale jewelry that is supposedly spirited inhabited. Listen to your heart and know that your are not alone.
Okay, that's the logic of the heart, on to the mind, shall we? One of the most important thing is the etho of the seller not reputation because the seller could be an expert at magick but new to ebay and they don't have the fancy music and photoshopped picture. Etho or ethic is very hard to see because it requires you to do a lot of research. But there are some simple way you can check your seller's ethic after watching their glowing 100% feedbacks and ask them tons of questions but receive two or less generic emails that saying basically Yes, it could work and it has worked for thousands of my customers.
One of the methods is seeing whether or not the seller bashing anyone in specific. Remember you don't know the very truth of anything so the bashing could be from the basher and bashee's fault of miscommunication. But the most important thing is the seller bash someone whether it's a fact or mistake. When they bash, it generates a large amount of negativity that affects their work severely. Do you really want the work of that conjurer or with that is going to make you feel worse or depressed all the time?
The other thing is their ego. Ego is something to look for because it's the best representation of ethos. Watch out for how the seller expressed themselves. Are they saying that they number one, winning numerous awards but half of the awards are self-generated? You can buy a cheap plastic cup of Wal-mart and saying you win the cup of Best Conjurer of the Year. Hey, no problem, freedom of speech, anyone? Also, are they saying that they can conjure Buddha or Greek, Celtic Immortal by a snap of the finger and sell at 100 bucks a piece. That is very offensive to me and shows that the seller have no knowledge and respect to other religions. Ask any Buddhist how would they react when you walk into the Buddhist temple and show that you own Buddha in a cheap piece of jewelry? Don't be surprised when you get you arse kicked by the Xiao-Lin monk.
More importantly, how are they treated you? Are they decent enough to answer you question in a timely and respected manner of just a cheap, full of grammatically error message that saying Hey, yo, you need to buy this because your life sucks. If it were me, I would not buy from them in a thousand times.
One lastly, does anything they said make sense? If they are saying, hey I spend 20 hours on each piece and each piece is very unique but I can produce 200 pieces a day. That means this seller have the power of God to reverse and control time to make 24 hours turning to 4000 hours a day provided that they don't eat, sleep, or have a life. You can do a simple check. Like using the feature of time new listed on their ebay store to see how many pieces put each week? 10-20 May be 40 should be okay but I won't go to few hundreds and thousands.
So there are just a tips that can help you.

Until next time
Sincerely yours,
Fellow paranormal collector.
