2. Have you used a website like Craigslist or EBay to buy or sell something? What was the experience like? Would you use such a service again? If you haven’t, detail how you have sold or bought something outside the environment of a retailer.
I use ebay almost everyday. I have the app on my phone and am watching items, and bidding on items all the time. It is soo easy to use and best of all, you can buy things for cheap. Ebay is soo simple with pictures of the items being sold, descriptions. It is tough sometime to win an item because of snipers. Snipers are people who bid on an item as soon as the bidding time is almost up. That is why they have Buy Now and some sellers have multiple items to sell. For everybody who is buying and selling there is feedback you give for that person. Feedback is used to to see if the sender is shipping fast, and the buyer pays in a timely fashion. I have never had any problems with Ebay so far.
I have an account with a cigar auction company where the same thing happens. I'll be watching cigars for a couple days and then right before I win the auction someone else will bid a dollar or two higher than mine and then I lose it. Although, I have been guilty of being a sniper too...
ReplyDeleteDoes the reputation system on eBay "work?"
