    just a couple of questions for ebay users

    1. if you are not over 18, did you lie about your age to register?

    2. is it safe?

    3. have you ever been ripped off?

    4. would you recommend using it to buy stuff?

    please answer these questions for me eBay users, especially the first one ;)

    Yeh, about the question has anyone ripped you off. Before bidding for something check the selllers comments and it says how happy people are about his service and comments about the goods quality and stuff.
    Why not get your parents to signup?

    Ebay is safe if you know what you are doing. I personally always look to buy from established buyers with a good reputation, so I have never been ripped off.

    If you have a valid way of paying (such as a paypal account) then nobody will notice I don't think.

    I thought it required a credit card? Or is that just for seller?

    Ebay is a great place to buy all kinds of stuff. All you have to do is watch who your buying from. If something is suspicious, run far away.

    I bought a Ozzfest 2001 shirt the other day for $5, and it had never been worn nor washed. Awesome deal!

    1. Yes
    2. Yes
    3. No
    4. Depends what you want to buy, if something selling on ebay is also on bestbuy or newegg or some website, I would recommend buying from the website. Ebay can sometimes be very confusing and annoying. If you mess something up, people will get pissed off and give you negative points. (I learned that the hard way)
