I BOUGHT A T.V. FROM EBAY FOR ONLY 0.99 CENTS. I HAVE NEVER SHOPPED ON EBAY BEFORE. IT SAID THAT I WOULD GET MY T.V. BETWEEN 3-5 BUISNESS DAYS. WILL I REALLY GET IT OR DID I GET CHEATED OUT OF MONEY.

of course eBay is real. it's an intermediary between you and other people to buy and sell things. check the terms of use on eBay for times regarding shipping policies. as a seller they have 30 days to ship the product. did you check their feedback? do they have any negatives? how much do they have? 1 negative for 10 feedbacks is bad. 1 negative for 1,000 feedbacks is acceptable. if you think something is too good to be true it probably is. but you'd be surprised what you can buy on ebay for super cheap. I've completed over a couple hundred purchases on eBay and have only been cheated once. hope that helps.

That depends on the seller. Did you check out their rating before you bought? How did you pay? If you used PayPal you may get some protection if the tv doesn't arrive. I'm guessing that if you won the bid at 0.99 cents, the shipping and handling cost was high? That is usually how they make up for offering such low non reserve opening bids.

They probably way over charged you for shipping. Sometimes sellers sell items way underpriced to avoid paying fees, and then they overinflate the shipping. Did you pay with Pay pal? If you don't get the TV, you can always file a claim against them. Good luck!

Yes. Contact the 'help' desk at Ebay.......





BTW: take off your rose-tinted glasses to see the real world.

99.99% of ebay sales are legit. You'll be fine.
