It costs nothing to become an eBay member, to shop for goods, or to purchase goods from eBay sellers. (You need to be a member, to either buy or sell on Ebay.)

7. Sellers pay a minimal amount to list items for sale, and another small percentage of the value when an item is sold. There are no monthly fees or other hidden costs. Like the real world in many ways. Just as you'll encounter both honest and dishonest people in the real world, you'll find both honest people and crooks on eBay.

8. Security precautions. Caveat emptor. Learn as much as possible about the product and the seller. (Reviews/ comments) Understand the sellers refund and return policies. Use a secure checkout and payment process. Many web sites use a technology called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to encrypt any personal and financial information sent over the Internet.
