ebay quite a lot in the UK for buying and selling. I only use in now when I know I'm going over to the UK for a holiday.

eBay is safe.. I use it often..

Never use Western Union to pay for items..Try and use PayPal..

Avoid items being advertised from Malaysia or China..

Good luck!

actually, this reminds me. Last month I heard there is going to be an Auction site here.

www.qbay.com

From what I've heard is they have been hiring people and I guess the site will go live any day now. Their office is in one of the towers on Corniche.

My old neighbor went for a job interview there, but I'm not sure what happened, I have not talked to him since.

Ebay is safe, just check the sellers feedback..Once upon a time i used it a lot, i had to give it up as it became to addictive buying things you dont really need, but its good to get stuff, especially if theres specific items that arent available on the market..

i've used it quite a number of times and no issues with any of the stuff i've purchased.

most recent purchase was around 2 weeks ago (from the US), goods arrived last week.

Try checking the item you're looking for in Amazon.com. Ebay can sometimes be dodgy.. IMO.

if you know what you are doing. Check seller feedback etc.

PM me if you want further guidance. I use eBay a lot and I've had very few problems.
