Well....you need something to sell. That could be:
-your wife's car
-the rifle that blew up with too much gun powder
You get the picture.
Seriously, I started to get on E-Bay one time recently and getting logged on they wanted my credit card number and my bank account number. Thought that was more than I was willing to give so backed off.
Lots of people do use E-Bay so I'm definitely interested, too, in learning more about this process.
I got a M1 Garand bayonet on ebay,but it was done through a friend of mine that sells on ebay. Things worked fine,but I'm like Ox,don't like to give out that kind of info. You do need to have a 'puter though.
Yeah,it would be a good idea,most people want to see what they're bidding on. Hop up on ebay and see how it works,you can look around without having to register.
So far. I've won three of four items I've bid on. Three were on Ebay, one on another site. I got signed onto Ebay before they started that credit-card/bank account non-sense - they shouldn't do that, as they have nothing to do with the payment. That's a contract between seller and buyer.
I paid too much for one item, but it's something that aint't often seen and I really needed it - so I'm satisfied. The other two items were dirt cheap - occasionally there are good deals. If you're the only bidder, it works well. If someone else drives the price up - watch out. Some AH's take a perverse delight in running a price up just for funzies. I hate that.
If you have a computer, the only other things that are required are a digital camera and the software that came with the camera. You can get a good one at Wal-mart for $200. I started out on E-bay and went on to firearm auctions. Everything is pretty straightforward and simple. Just follow the directions on the sellers page when you get ready to auction an item. I really enjoy it.
I have used Auction Arms to seel ammo in the past before Y2K I had one dutch auction going on SS109 Reman. ammo and it was selling for $50 over my normal retail which they could have linked to on the site. I have made purchases from AA and had very good deals come about but I once bought a CD for my truck on E-bay and the thing didn't work. Just remember you get what you pay for and don't get caught up in the bidding frenzy. This is where many people get caught up and pay too much
I've bought many accessories in Auction Arms, the only thing is to be aware of the feedback from the seller, and this doesn't guarantee that everything is going to be ok but it's a good measure.
Once I check an auction with a really good price in the knives that were for sale (dutch auction) and I asked some questions and the guy even send me a site to browse so I bid and won!!
The payment was due in 3 days but for some reason I forgot about it and didn't send (about $7.00). A few weeks later I received and e-mail from some other buyer asking me about my experience with the seller, at that point I remembered about the auction and tried to contact the seller.
A few days later the buyer contacted me telling that he send the money and never heard again from the seller (he bought about 3 or 4 of the advertised knives). He was very pisstoff and wanted to know if the same happened to me.
I never heard about the seller again after trying to contact 3-4 times to send him the forgotten payment, he was no longer in the site, and the site that he send me went out the same week.
I guess that an angel saved me from this scam 'cause I always pay my auctions the next workday.
I feel sorry for the other guy that fell in the scam!!
My advice is to check the feedback very carefully and buy some items of little value at first from an unknown seller.
I have a seller from Seattle to supply me with all my glock needs, this guy is AAA and prices are good, I first bought from him in an auction and then directly.
