In it, each vendor has its own "shop" where they get their products advertised. Seller has any corner of the world, and anybody can be one. You can create your account and get only buyer, or may be both.
1. How to buy on Ebay
For those who do not yet know, Ebay is the largest online marketplace in the world where
anyone can buy or sell (almost) everything. In it, each vendor has its own "shop" where they
get their products advertised. Seller has any corner of the world, and anybody can be one.
You can create your account and get only buyer, or may be both.
payments
As in any international site, needs international card. But on Ebay, the purchase policy is
different. They only accept payments through PayPal. (Do not have yet? Just join the site and
create an account, it's super fast. It is a safer way to protect your card.) With this, people can
send money without sharing financial information and can still pay with your bank account
balances and credit cards. At the time of checkout, just click and enter your PayPal password
to purchase is made.
advantages
The variety and quantity of products found on Ebay is what attracts so many people, and the
strength is that due to so many offers, you find the same product for different prices. It's up to
us to have the proper patience to seek out a lot before buying.
With this "dispute" between vendors due to competition, some of them put the "Free
Shipping", which means Free Shipping. It is always good to check first if the same product
with free shipping exists, even if the price is higher, it is more worthwhile.
{Step 1: Create an Account}
2. Click "Register" in the upper left corner of site to register. Just give your name, email address,
create a password and voila!
{Step 2: What to buy?}
Leveraging the picture above, you can see that underneath the logo of the site has a list of
categories. You can search or accessing it going straight into the search box and type what
you are looking for. Remember that as the site is all in English, you must enter keywords in
English to facilitate the search. You can also refine your search by searching for filters in
categories, for example material, size, color, etc. As you are choosing a category, filters are
increasing. (Ex: Men> TShirts>
Size, Type, Color, etc.). Learn to look for the right keywords
is the key to good results. Usually if you search by brand name does not find nearly anything
or find expensive. It is always good to search by product name (if clothing, look for dress,
skirt, pants, etc). Still can refine the search to only the "Buy It Now", because many auctions
on Ebay occurs (I'll explain that part). By choosing this option you just search what's being
sold without auction.
{Step 3: Which one do I choose?}
Decided what you want? Found million equal options from different vendors, each with a
price? Calm, breathe.
The first thing I do is pick up before everything is Free Shipping, and of course make sure I
deliver in Brazil. Only pay for shipping if you do not have nenhuminha free option, and if I
really want the product. Before you choose, make sure it is also "piece" (a play) or "lot"
(multiple parts, batch type).
Free Shipping found but each has a different price? You should now review the seller.
{Step 4: Review the seller}
3. On Ebay, it is always important to know whether the seller is trustworthy. Everyone always
asks if the entire site is reliable, but here is what determines that the person selling the
product.
For that, there are the "Top Sellers". Whenever you read this, you can now feel reassured.
But wait, that's not all. Under the name of the seller, has the "feedback" of the product, which
is the percentage of how many times the purchase of this product was successful (how many
people were satisfied).
You can still see the "feedback" from the seller, which is nothing more than notes and
comments from those who have bought with it. To do this, simply click on the name of the
seller. Will open a window like this:
In "Latest Feedback" by clicking "See All" you find all the feedback left for this seller.
You see the red door of the side of his name up there? Clicking on it you visit the shop of the
seller, see all the products he is selling. Or click "Visit my store" under his photo.
{Step 5: Has my number?}
Tryin to buy something that needs to fit you? On the product page, look well to your
description, rolling the mouse wheel you find more photos, some information about it, the type
of material, and their size.
Well. The size probably will be in accordance with the Americans.
For clothing: May be it is in the form of S, M and L. S is small (small), M medium
(medium) and large L (large).
4. BUT ATTENTION! Do not go out buying if you wear S P, sizes vary from seller to seller. If
Chinese then forgets. hehehehehe
Down to scroll the page, you will find a table with neat measures in cm of each size. (I get that
not loca with the measuring tape across me). Can be unconcerned that the rhythm will always
be there, and if not is because the size is unique (Free Size), but will be measured.
For shoes: Probably will be in the US measures, which are in numbers. Usually the
description is a conversion table for some countries. If not Brazil or even the table, playing
with Google "shoe conversion chart" you think quickly!
{Step 6: I chose, now what?}
After making sure of what you want, you can keep buying stuff, and add to cart "Add To Cart".
If you only want it, finalize the purchase by clicking "Buy It Now". Hence only provide your
address, zip code, etc., and checkout, logging in with the password of your PayPal.
At the end of the page, below, has an equal part to this photo. There you can see if someone
has already done some question about the product. If you have nothing, and you're still in
doubt ask a question by clicking "Ask a Question". If you do not have this option in the
description, will be further down the email from the seller. One of two things is going to have,
can be quiet :)
And they mostly are very thoughtful, after all everyone wants to sell!
screening
Not all products have trace varies from vendor to vendor. To know whether or not, just read
the product description, there has all the necessary information.
5. Auctions
I personally have no desire to participate in any. But the Ebay also has auctions. You give
your "Bid" (guess) and click "Place Bid" to confirm. On top says the time remaining pro
auction end. As you're watching, you can go the other giving hints to hold the product,
"competing" with others who leads. I prefer to just click on the Buy It Now and assure me
hehehehe
coupons
Soon after I created my account on Ebay and updated my PayPal with international card, I
received an email from Ebay / PayPal partnership with a coupondiscount
of $ 15 (US
dollars). Many people have asked me why had not received well. I do not know how these
things work, but at the time he received, I saw lots of people getting well. Not only the
partnership but own isolated sites and even Facebook.
And folks, it is not a lie, is it really true! I used my $ 15 off a great buy (when it arrives, will be
post!). And let's combine that with precinhos Ebay, $ 15 there is a discount for good!
I do not know if it has any place or anything you can do to acquire these coupons, not
discovered until today. Think or should ever have to buy, or even sitting waiting until it gets a
nice email for you :(
Daily Deals
In the upper left corner, next to your name has a link called "Daily Deals" which is nothing
more than the offerings of the day. Everything is on sale and discount will appear to you there,
and the cool thing is you can still browse the offerings by category.
Cabo!
And the end! His first purchase was made on Ebay. Now is sit and wait for your order to
arrive. And look, there is patience. I do not know if something different happened lately, but
some orders'm hoping there 55 days already.
The Ebay okay with politics now that after a few days if your order does not arrive, they cancel
the purchase and return the money. I think the date varies with each seller.
Have screening? Then follow bora. Click on "My Ebay" menu in the upper right corner. Here
you can keep track of everything, has a list of everything you ordered and the tracking number
(you have to wait about 3 days after purchase Pro Seller release that number, it is time that
they send the product). You can either click on that number and have the information (but not
usually update on Ebay) or can play this number on the site of the Post Office. When traced
on another website, the seller usually sends the site by email to you, but in most cases this is
here.
6. Will I be taxed?
Everyone always warns that to avoid being taxed is good to buy up to $ 50 (USD) and I prefer
to believe and warn me. They say that even this amount is not at risk, but who knows. I have
never been taxed and hope not to be so I can not say for sure how it happens or what to do,
but I think you are obligated to pay. Who knows, may give hint here in the comments.
And if the product screening, will appear in the written screening itself that was seized by the
IRS, ANVISA, etc.
Has arrived!
Your product arrived? Did you like it? Do not like it? Came defective? Came wrong? Enters
the seller's profile and leave there your feedback about the product! This is very important,
both pro seller and buyers coming pros can learn an opinion.
Want to know more, get tips on vendors, products, and news?
Can you do "Wish Lists" or Wish Lists on Ebay too. On the product
page, just file it in one. Do not think I have any need, just if you are interested to share it on
Facebook, or elsewhere to people to see what they can buy for you.
Folks, this is it. I think I wrote all the stepbystep
just right and gave all possible tips for you. If
i am missing something, or if you still have any questions, ask here in the comments that I
7. respond in good shape! And if you buy and want to share the little shopping, send photo to
me! I hope you enjoyed!
