eBay Economics 101

Post Body

I use Ebay to find bargains, and believe me, it is getting harder and harder. I don't have a LHS available that actually has anything I need when I need it, so I do 99% on the internet. Sometimes Ebay, sometimes online discounters. <br /> <br />Usually I shop online stores for items that I want until I find the lowest price. Then I will watch Ebay and see if I can get the same item for less. If I can, then I use Ebay, otherwise it is the discounter. <br /> <br />Sometimes I will buy used items, if they suit my needs and are in a condition acceptable to me. I <b>always</b> ask if there are any missing or broken parts, paint condition, etc. Every seller I have asked that answered have been honest in their representation thus far. If a seller does not answer, I will not bid, period. <br /> <br />I also have sold numerous items that no longer fit my era or theme and I make sure to describe any slight flaws and will answer all replys and furnish additional photos if requested. To me honesty is the best policy, and so far I have gotten excellent deals and made satisfactory sales.
