The Opinion:I think that Ebay is a great place for Businesses, collectors, hobbiest, Entrepreuneurs & others alike to trade and do business, like any auction site nothing is guaranteed. I find that certain things tend to sell more, like rarity items, collectables, antiques, designer clothing, popular music cds, computers & automotive supplies. Overall Ebay is a great site for buying & selling, Just be sure to watch out for Buyers/Sellers with bad/no feedback. Feedback tells alot about the buyers.
