Books
I have found both new and used books on Ebay. I always check quite a few places before I buy, and Ebay sometimes has the very lowest price.
I recently bought a book that is usually over $30. I didn’t need it new so I bought it used on Ebay for $7. I had my eye on this book for a while, and I have never seen it for that low of a price (even used).
I have also bought new books for less on Ebay-including books that have just come out. Books on CD can also be a great price on Ebay.
Jewelry
Ebay has some really great prices on jewelry. And there are all different kinds of jewelry-from costume type jewelry to jewelry with gold and precious stones. My friend McKinzie says that she likes to buy statement pieces like bold necklaces from Ebay.
Of course it is always wise to check out the seller and use other safe practices for Ebay.
I am amazed at the different types of jewelry available on Ebay. There are vintage pieces, solid gold jewelry with precious stones, and jewelry that looks like the latest fashion.
Gifts for Kids
I recently bought a Science kit on Ebay after I had Googled for a while! Ebay beat everyone’s prices. They also have really great prices on toys like Calico Critters.
It is definitely worth your time to check out Ebay’s toys when you are shopping for kids.
Printer Ink
Printer ink can be really expensive! But it can be found on Ebay for really low prices. You can put in the number of your printer ink if you know it, or you can try typing in the printer model that you have.
The “generic” inks will be the best price. I have found the generic ink to work fine for me. Check out the printer ink on Ebay here.
Cameras and Lenses
Ebay helped me to save $100 on a camera I bought recently. You can get really high quality equipment for very low prices on Ebay. I bought a camera that was very gently used instead of new, but it easily saved me at least $100.
Of course, I definitely would advise you to use my cheat sheet to help you get the best deal, especially when you are shopping for a high ticket item.
