Well i do have to admit that i am totally obsessed with Ebay!
I just cannot help it for anyone who doesnt know what Ebay is its an online auction website where you can buy and sell loads of differnt items there are some restrictions on what you can sell but not many.

Buying = Buying on ebay is pretty simple you use the search bar to type in more or less anything you want and then search through loads of different peoples listings, so you can find the cheapest you can then place a bid on these items or some are listed as buy it nows so you dont have all the waiting to see if your going to win them!!
Once you have won the items you need to pay most people prefer paypal which is a type of electronic payment system which takes money either from your paypal account or your bank account (you do need to sign up for this which is simple) but most people also accept postal orders and cheques.

Selling = If you choose to sell thing on ebay aswell you would need to set up a sellers acount which does need either paypal or your bank set up to do this but again this is pretty simple to set up.
You can then list all sorts of items, there is plenty of tutorials to show you what to do and how to list, but it is pretty straight forward its a basic form which you can go through where you write descriptions of your item, postage details, photos and payment details.
It does cost money to list items but you can get a minimum listing for about 10p, there is also a final selling fee payable to ebay which is just a percentage on whatever the final price is.

Like i said Ebay is a definate shopping place for me, i have got so many bargains from there if you bid right at the last minuite you can get some realy cheap items!
And i have also sold a lot of items on there for good prices and make myself quite a bit of money.
All i will say is just be careful of some sellers as there is some people out there that will try to con you and get money from you and not post your items (always check the sellers feedback which you can find at the side of there name) but if this does happen you can claim your money back through ebay or paypal.

Summary: Fantastic place to buy and sell
