Bidding And Buying On EBay:
      Bonus Or Bogus?
You're undoubtedly heard about people getting great
 deals on items they bought through eBay. If you're a bit
envious and ready to try your hand, here's your chance to
                       learn more.
Exactly What Is An eBay?
It's an online auction website, in fact the biggest one in
  the world. You know how an auction works -- someone
puts up something they want to sell and then buyers come
 along and place bids on it. The highest bid wins the item.
Being an online auction makes eBay a bit
  different, though. eBay accepts almost any item, no
matter how small, and will then advertise it on their sites
                   all over the world.
How Does Bidding On eBay Work?
Bidding on eBay is a little more complex than a normal
auction. On eBay, you enter the maximum amount you are
 willing to pay for an item, and then eBay places the bids
on your behalf. You could enter a maximum bid of $100 for
    something, and end up paying only $25, if that was
                      sufficient to win.
The best introduction to eBay is to dive in and give it a try.
First, you need to go to the eBay website for your country.
 If you don't know the address, just go to www.ebay.com
and you will find it. Once you have the front page of your
    country's website, you should see a big box marked
 "esearch." Just type into the box anything that you'd like
                           to buy.
When you enter an item, say an opal ring, the website
gives you a list of opal rings for sale, along with how much
people are currently bidding for them, and the time when
   bidding ends for that item. Click on each of the listed
  items, and you can read the description. If you find an
   item you want, and are willing to pay more than the
  current highest bidder, then it's time to enter the fray.
How Can I Buy What I Want?
On the item's description page, scroll down to the bottom
and type the maximum you are willing to pay into the box.
  Then click the "eplace bid" button. At this point you will
 need to sign in, or go through a quick registration process
                        if you are new.
eBay will let you know if someone else's maximum bid on
     that item is higher than yours, and you'll have an
  opportunity to change your bid. Otherwise, you're now
the new highest bidder! You can sit back and wait until the
  end of the auction. Meanwhile, if someone else outbids
you, eBay will notify you by email, and you can revise your
                             bid.
Sounds like a fun shopping experience, doesn't it? Well, if
     you're ready, it's time to jump into the eBay.
