• Murano Glass From Ebay

  I got this Murano Glass from Ebay. It is really cheap, I could get it for the bid of US1. However I was really disappointed because the seller was not truthful. He wrote in the description that it was from UK but really the glass is from Hong Kong. Secondly, the shipping cost from Hong Kong to Malaysia was overpriced. I guess it will be the last thing I will buy from the seller.

  
  

  
  

  I have to be very careful with bidding in Ebay. I found a lot of items there are not what is expected. I did a negative feedback with regards to the above seller. It is funny that most of the seller can create fake feedbacks. It will be good if Ebay can let us filter ad view just the negative feedbacks.

  I always window shop in Ebay but never actually got anything except now. I suppose most of the stuff that is sold locally at ebay, we can get it in the local stores. Most of the time, the things I want is abroad and shipping is costly.

  Last week, I surf through Ebay and something caught my eye. A nice read star pendant for 1 Pound which is RM7. Cheap deal! It is pretty too and I decided to get for Emily. After winning that bid, my adrenaline runs high and decided to get other stuff. Here are the stuff that I got:

  
  

  
  

  With Ebay it is simple to buy stuff if you own a paypal account. You bid, wait and if you are successful, you pay. Your stuff will be delivered to you. Set a limit to how much you want to bid so that you do not overpay. A few things to note watch out for cheaters and read seller feedbacks to see if they are genuine. Once I bid for a watch, there was no bidder for a few days before I bid. After I bid, suddenly bidder start cropping in. I suspect something fishy and refrain from bidding from that seller.

  Hey you can even setup your own online store with ebay. I am sure Malaysia has a lot of good stuff that the other side of the world needs.
