Does Anyone Shop on EBay?

EBay scares me. But then again, ATM cards scare me. Furs at the beach scare me. Guns scare me. Designer logos don't scare me so much as they make wonder why the people wearing them don't get paid for free advertising. Big huge new houses scare me, and when they cut down trees to make way for those huge houses it really po's me. I am not scared in my home, I am cozy and sometimes the big huge houses that surround me give my plants some shade. I could go buy all those "things" I suppose, but I am just happy with what I've got and no material object has factored into that equation. My family and friends are what make me happy and not so scared. I am blessed.

You're so sweet, Sueshore!

Ebay doesn't scare me, but it totally stresses me out when I do bid on something so I stay away from it.
 
QVC for bare escentuals

I buy and sell on Ebay. :) Just remember...it's best not to bid until the end of an auction. You might just drive the price up otherwise.
 
Make up scares me too, but I wear it sometimes. I know it helps make me look "pulled" together, but I really hate taking it off at night! I actually had a bare escentuals make over at Ulta. Bought it too. By the time I got home, my face was stinging...I am guessing it was not the make up, but the brush being swipped over and over my face by the guy! It did look nice. I took it back.

How do you know the people selling you stuff won't just take your money and not send the item you bid on?
 
What is the product that you girls speak of?

A good friend of mine just took a position at Shop ETC. in the beauty department and she's now my in. She brings all sorts of goodies around. All she does is call it in and it's ours...all OURS! :clap_1:

You can check their reliability by checking their "feedback." Feedback is where buyers and sellers leave positive or negative comments at the close of a transaction. Anybody with several negative feedbacks is probably unreliable.

I don't think it would have been the makeup since it's recommended by dermatologists and other skin care professionals at spas. Probably the brush wasn't clean enough? I bought some of their blush yesterday at Sephora and I wanted the foundation powder, too, but I couldn't stand to spend almost $50 in cosmetics in one fell swoop. Hence trying EBay. I plan on spending lots of time on SoWal and the Bare Escentuals has a sunscreen factored in, and I liked that.

EBay has ratings on its sellers so you can read the feedback and see if their customers are happy. You never want to deal with someone who has less than a 98% rating if you can help it.

Steeleing1, once my mother was bidding on a pair of shoes and Merman and I were watching her. (This consititutes entertainment in Indiana. :blink: ) We were screaming into the computer screen "UP that bid!" "You're letting the other bidder get you!" "Smack that bid down!" etc etc etc and as the minutes were ticking away we got noisier and noisier. Until our daughter yelled from her room "Will you two be quiet? Someone's trying to do their homework here!" We shut up after that!
