Shopping on Ebay can be a frustrating task, especially when you have no idea where or how to start! After years of Ebay shopping experience, I have a few simple tips on how to shop on Ebay!
Ebay Purchase: African Fabric
1. Be Descriptive
Refine your Ebay search by being as descriptive as possible. Using descriptive terms can lead you to products that closely align to what you are looking to purchase. For instance, if you are looking for large block sunglasses, try searching for square frame sunglasses instead. Not only will this search help broaden your product results, but you will also find sellers that specifically sell products that are either trendy, vintage or useful miscellaneous goods.

5. WATCH IT
Ebay has been so successful due to impulse buyers (like myself)! In order to ensure that you are really purchasing what you want, add the items you are eyeing to your Watch List. Not only will you be able to scope out other comparable items, but it will calm that impulse to hit BUY IT NOW!
