"you only save money by ebaying providing the seller is fair with shipping costs."


A lot of people don't realize this, I have known this since my first item purchased 4 years ago. I find it funny how I see bidders fighintg over a 2 dollar item, that has 40 bux shipping, that can be bought locally for 30 bux, and the listings they bid on are listed as "untested - does not work - for parts only" on items that are unrepairable.
It's probably true with low value items, you're better off buying it retail, but it's the more expensive items where you save money.
