Anyone have experience buying and shipping from eBay?
I’m trying to open a gadget store where I buy gadgets on eBay to resell for small profits. I have zero experience buying from there and I’m trying to avoid having to learn extremely costly lessons from experience by finding out from people who have had experience extensive experience buying from there. How likely am I to get scammed? What should I watch out for? Is using reviews as a metric to assess authenticity of advertisers (using this word instead because the word I want to use seems to set off a restriction in the sub) a mistake? How much should I expect to pay for customs or duty on goods? I have a lot of questions that I can’t remember all of at once, so if you feel like there’s something else I should be considering which I haven’t mentioned, please let me know. Also feel free to share any experience you had buying from eBay, good or bad.
If this is not supposed to be here, kindly let me know and direct me where to send it and I’ll do just that.
Thank you😁
