Ebay.in - need any Introduction?......


As usual india's favourite auction site has lot of seller's from all over the country with various products. So we type in the product of our choice in the search bar and get so many matches, it's that simple! But as we know that internet shopping is very risky and can lead to our losses we still trust the site coz it's famous and people leave so many comments about the seller expressing their happiness coz the product has been delivered on time! I'am going to describe here how the seller's actually sell their products and the con game involved with it.....

these are just my experiences whenever i visit this site. i have never bought anything from ebay so here's the reason why i don't......

PRICE:
well i don't know why people buy products that cost more than the retail value! Go to ebay and u will find prices that vary in values. u might be tempted when u see a product that costs 1000 bucks less than the actual product. But don't go on and buy that product coz u might not know the con game that he might be playing on u! what if he gives u a used or refurbished product? well even a product that's just a month old can't be trusted! u ask me how i come to know of this? well i have a nokia N70 purchased from a dealer in my city whom i know very well and whom i trust. The box has a seal which has to be broken in order to open the box. well i just peeled it like u would do carefully with a birthday present to preserve the wrapping! I was surprised that the seal could be refixed! The seal is such that u can't make out whether it's really sealed or gummed manually to the box! However my dad has a nokia 3230, the seal however once opened can't be sticked onto the surface! So i came to know that the stickers vary from box to box and also the way in which the seller's deal with the customers! So if u are new to ebay then it's better to make small purchases at first and then move onto bigger and better products. It's preferrable if u make all ur purchase with the same seller who sells variety of products. I think it not wise to buy expensive things from ebay onless u trust the seller.

DELIVERED ON TIME, WELL.....:
The day of delivery varies from user to user! some get their products on time and some others don't get it, while others have to beg with the seller to get it delivered! U can see it in the comments section of some of the sellers. so there's a lot of con game involved and this usually happens when a buyer buys expensive products like mobiles.

USEFULNESS OF THIS SITE:
This site can help u find the current market price of all the products featured in the site. I visit this site almost everyday coz it helps me in my buying decisions. I bought the nokia N70 after i realized that the prices were not dropping as per my expectations and i thought that waiting for a few more months would be a waste coz it's a N-series and they are not like the regular nokia S60 phones which continue to become cheaper! that's where ebay really strikes a chord!

FINAL CONCLUSION:
Ebay is a good auction site and i would recommend it to anyone but beware of some sellers! (well i mentioned some, not all) Be a smart shopper and if u like u can follow the rules that i have set for myself (mentioned above). GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY SHOPPING!!
