    Actually, sometimes eBay.com isn't the cheapest place.

    I was looking for an omni directional antenna once and I searched eBay. I found some buyers listing them at full retail price. So I figured, what's the point in buying from eBay if they're charging full MSRP w/o tax. So I go to Buy.com and find it for the same price. However, there was a rebate if I bought it from Buy.com. So I got the antenna from Buy.com and I got the rebate. So after everything, it was cheaper than eBay.

    yup
    that true
    i <3 ebay cuz u can sell stuff there
    i sold 3 use games and i make 230$
    the total cost of the 3 games are $175+40cost for shipping+usign ebay+paypal
    i play them and beat them now i got some cash xtra
     
  5. i rememebr buying a projector from ebay along with one of our other mods here it cost me about $50 for the shipping alone. watch out for the hidden fees espically the boarder fees might cost you another $40

    people do anything for 15 posts eh :D

    spam shinobi's pm and tell him to take off the 15 posts download restrictions -clapclap

    heheh
    the 40 fee break down to
    13 on shipping (shipped to 3 places so baout 4 buck each)
    13 on ebay (about 6 buck for positng and then some % of the amount sold for)
    13 on paypal (3%fee)

    tell me about i watch the fee tightly so i cna get maximum profit
    i was hoping to sell each game for 50 and minus the fee so i get my money back, but i end up making a profit=D

    ebay is a good place to look for good, and u can save time

    I'm a ebay seller and I import stuff from Japan and never paid customs, And my items are worth over £1500.00GBP. My next load of items is the new DS Lite - got 40 units coming over from Japan when released!!

    There is a way round it!!! But can not let the secret out!!!!

    The easy one is send as gift!!

    Yeah... Sometime you can get the items cheap but not always lol

    One time, I was getting a very awesome headphone on ebay, but it turn out is much cheaper on Amazon... So I bought it there instead! Ha!
