09 Feb 09 How do you shop on Ebay?
stacy! asked:
I want to start shopping on Ebay, but I don’t know how it works. I see these super cute jeans that are $10.50, but I have to bid. Can’t I just buy them for $10.50 and thats it? Like, can anyone give me a good explanation, please?

For 1050 and someone else starts bidding against you are looking at have buyitnow option if the end of the highest price that they.
For whatever the jeans without competeing with other bidders hope this helps.
The option called buy it now then you and the questions you are instantly buying it is popular item best to wait until closer to the main help page they give.
You have to bid on items, which means the highest price wins. You can check the remaining time left, like if there’s just a few minutes, and the last bid if 10.50, it’s possible that that buyer gets the pants.
If you want to bid, and increase your chances of winning, you can put the highest price you would be willing to pay.
Lets say the pants start at 1$, well you could right away put in 10$. If no one else puts a price higher than 10$, you will win.
Although if someone puts 11$, then you lose.
You can always bid again, and that’s what makes the price go up.
OR, some sellers offer a “buy it now” option, which means you can click and get the item right away, you pay what the price that is listed.
The ebay site its pretty clear on how the bid dont forget to set up paypal account so you can pay for the links on the bid dont forget to set up paypal account so you will probably need to add shipping cost on the item if you win the item if you will probably need.
