Default EBay Bargains

Top Tip:

When looking for items on Ebay, search for misspellings of the item you are looking for. Most uses will not find these items - because (of course) the misspellings mean that they do not show up in seaches. This also means of course very few bids and you may well pick up a bargain!!

Another online auction tip is...

Top Tip:
Pay close attention to the shipping and packaging costs for the item. If they are not disclosed, email first to get the price.


Sometimes sellers boost their profits by overcharging on the postage!


Grow leeks. They rock.
