Advantages: lots of products.

Disadvantages: buyer may get cheated

Ebay.com is one of the best store on the internet and greatest competitor of Amazon. Anyway both of them have their own advantages and disadvantages. Since I have purchased about 28 items from ebay I could point out some advantages and disadvantages. The advantages are (I felt)
* Lots of product ,almost everything.
* Cheap rate (that's the advantage of sellers and not the ebay)
* Supports PayPal (I use to work online and receive money via PayPal, so it is easier to buy)
* High speed and navigation.
* Bidding and alerts via mobile phones.
* Buyer can leave feedback on seller, so that another buyer can know if the seller is a scam.
By the way there are a lots of disadvantages as well. I got cheated twice from there. Ebay's buyer protections on low cost products are too weak and they are not taking much importance on that. Ebay is just a stage, they have nothing to do but to make profit but Amazon's service is good. Thing is that both of them have pros and cons.

Summary: This is one of the most popular international online store.
