Believe it or not I actually found my car on e-bay. Years ago. I bid on the car but then it was shown as sold hours later. The seller closed the biddings. I called him (I found their info in their ebay store) and days later he called me back asking if I would like to see the car. I went and days later came back with the cash. Nice, huh?

I haven't bought anything on e-bay for a long time. But I still keep my profile. This link shows the reviews of my last purchase on ebay (a keyless key for my car).

The feedback is shown on this link:

I plan to purchase more on ebay. I need to make some changes on my paypal account. For some reason it shows the name of a friend and a card that is not valid anymore.

I use ebay.com to buy an item that is really spend it at the store, this is safe and secure to use, here you can find a lot thing that you can bid for chip, if you won the auction you can pay in a safe manner to scure your privacy, Foe example, today i bought it a Micro Memory 8GB SankDisk for $21.99 when at the store has a value for $99.99 dollars, also i use ebay.com to buy a second hand item that i can not find in a store.

Here is a link to find the last buy from ebay.com.
