What kind of things do you buy on eBay?

What do you buy on eBay?

I shop eBay like some people shop at Target. Makeup, socks, underwear, clothes, shoes, antiques, CDs, electronics, camera and computer equipment, perfume, books, artwork, silverware, yadda yadda yadda.

I collect old postcards depicting scenes in my hometown. About 90% of them come from eBay.

What's the most unusal eBay purchase you've ever made?

Mine has to be my Jaguar. A lot of people can't believe I bought a car on eBay -- but it was prefaced by weeks of doing a lot of "homework" before making that decision. I've had it over a year now and I'm still pleased with the car, and the thousands of dollars I saved.

What's the best buy you ever got on eBay?

A brand new pair of Cole Haan loafers for $20. They retail for $200.

Just today I received a bottle of my favorite perfume from an eBay seller in the UK, a Penhaligon's scent very hard to find in the US but bought on eBay for $30 less than retail.

Is the internet great or what?? :thumb:

Audiobooks, especially courses on music, history, religion, philosophy. Those have been wonderful. After I listen, I sell them again. Usually I break even.

Nothing is as effective as homeopathy.

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.

I buy lots of stuff on Ebay. Mostly video games and dvds 'cause they are so much cheaper than retail and I can get them brand new. I have been selling on Ebay for about 4 years now. I love it - a great way to make a little extra dough and get rid of stuff hiding in the closet. I sold my piano on Ebay!

My first purchase on ebay was a bottle of 1989 Petrus Pomeral...850$!! Saved it for years until I got married. Kind of like a woman that buys a wedding dress before she even gets married.

Sold two Rolex Daytonas...multiple bikes...LOVE ebay!
