INTERNET GARAGE SALE
World's Biggest Online Marketplace Rules All
by Asia Comet Utmost
Click. Tap tap tap tap tap. Welcome to eBay.com, the world's biggest online marketplace.
You've reached what is known to internet shoppers around the world as eBay! All you need is a credit card number to sign up and you're on your way to buying and selling with people across the globe.
This is how it works. Sellers place items for selling on their own listing, under the appropriate catergory. They can customize the title, description, starting bid, reserve price, and even sell it at a fixed cost.
Shoppers can then bid on and compete with others to buy the item, or buy it automatically with the Buy It Now option. Once the auction is over after a 3, 5, 7, or 10 day period, or Buy It Now is used, the buyer sends payment and should recieve the package within a week.
Not only are items available for sale, but real estate, automobiles, and favors are as well.
Many books are on the market, such as one I saw at Barnes & Noble which mentioned some extreme things that people have tried to sell (and sometimes have). One that I found rather strange was a man who tried to sell a dead friend's soul in a bottle.
If you haven't already, check out ebay.com and see what you can find! My recent list of things purchased included a Harry Potter scarf, Lord of the Rings postcards for Anne, and even a "magic wand"! Though, do use your common sense, as a lot of people out there may con you into buying low quality items or rip you off.
