YOU CAN GET SOME BEAUTIFUL THINGS AT A GREAT PRICE ON EBAY BUT YOU CAN ALSO GET JUNK!

THE FIRST THING TO WATCH FOR IS THE WORD GENUINE! JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING SAYS TURQUOISE OR GOLD OR WHATEVER THAT DOESN’T MEAN ITS IT! IT MAY JUST BE THE COLOR OF IT! I BUY SWAROVSKI CRYSTALS FOR DESIGNING FOR MY SMALL BEADED JEWELRY BUSINESS & ONCE I BOUGHT SOME THAT SAID GENUINE & I GUESS I ASSUMED THEY WERE SWAROVSKI BUT THEY WEREN’T! THE OTHERS JUST DON’T HAVE THE SAME SPARKLE & CLARITY!(AND NO I DON’T WORK OR GET ANY COMP FROM SWAROVSKI!)

ALSO WATCH FOR QUALITY & CONDITION & NEW OR USED-IF IT DOESN’T SAY WHICH-ASK! YOU MAY THINK YOU’RE GETTING A GREAT DEAL BUT IT MAY NOT BE BECAUSE THE QUALITY IS INFERIOR.

ALWAYS READ SOME OF THE FEEDBACK & BE WARY IF THE SELLER SAYS HE’LL LEAVE YOUR FEEDBACK AFTER YOU LEAVE YOURS! I LEAVE FEEDBACK FOR MY BUYERS WHEN THEY PAY SO THEY ARE FREE TO SAY WHAT THEY WANT! SEE EXAMPLES use my user id!

MANY GEMS ARE RATED. THE MOST FAMOUS BEING DIAMONDS WHICH ARE RATED FOR THE 4 C’S: CUT ,CLARITY,CARAT, COLOR. BUT OTHER GEMS ARE ALSO RATED EVEN SEMI PRECIOUS ONES LIKE AMETHYST & TURQUOISE ON AN A,B,C, SCALE.OR SOMETIMES EXCELLENT,VERY GOOD COND,GOOD ETC.

WATCH THE SIZE!!! MANY USE MAGNIFICATION TO SHOW DETAIL BUT SOME TO FOOL YOU INTO THINKING ITS BIGGER THAN IT IS! READ CAREFULLY & IF IT DOESN’T SAY IT -ASK! WATCH IF THEY USE A RULER-THEY MAGNIFY THAT TOO!

SOME WILL PICTURE LOTS OF ITEMS BUT THE AUCTION IS ONLY FOR 1-BE CAREFUL!

THEN THERE ARE GREAT EBAY SELLERS WHO GIVE YOU GREAT STUFF & FREEBIES TOO!!

OH & OF COURSE WATCH THE SHIPPING COSTS-YOU CAN BE GETTING A GREAT DEAL ON THE PRICE BUT THE SHIPPING COULD BE OUTRAGEOUS! LOOK FOR THOSE WHO GIVE DISCOUNTS WHEN YOU BUY OTHERS FROM THEM -I DO! IF ITS NOT STATED-ASK!!!

LOOK FOR MONEY BACK IF NOT SATISFIED-I WON’T DO BUSINESS WITH THOSE WHO DON’T! I DO!

I GUESS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS TO READ CAREFULLY & ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING!!!!

IF YOU FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES I KNOW YOU’LL BE HAPPY WITH YOUR PURCHASES!(ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO GUARANTEE-YOU’LL HAVE A MUCH BETTER CHANCE OF GETTING QUALITY MERCHANDISE!

HAPPY EBAYING
