E-BAY BUY-IT NOW (only) SUPERB!!
Posted: Fri Oct 01, 2010 3:04 am
I'm in the USA.
I'm not discussing or plugging auctions only BUY-IT NOW or BEST OFFER.
(Only the sellers who list auction items make more money by advertising.)
I've PURCHASED several RC items on e-bay from reputable hobby shops to direct Honk Kong sales.
I'm satisfied with all my purchases.
Props, batteries, servos, brushless motor combos, airplanes and airplane parts, prop adapters, eneloops, JST connector leads, balance plugs, weed-eater converted motors,.....
Several non RC items like cell phone replacement batteries, data cables, auto parts, vacuum cleaner parts, pretty much anything....
I search for an item, select BUY IT NOW only, sort by price and shipping-lowest first and find the best deals.
I then try re-wording the search to find other of the same items. Maybe x4 or x10 where it's much cheaper to buy a pack of x?
You must watch for how much does shipping cost and if there are discounts for buying multiple items and have them shipped together.
You must also only buy from sellers that have mostly high feedback ratings and have sold hundreds or thousands of items.
You must also be careful that you really know what you are looking for as there are MANY counterfeit and fake items.
I found people showing pack of 4 items and only selling 1 ea. in the description, just a manual instead of the item, plans instead of real things, stuff that may actually be free with research on the web.
If you are careful you can get some really great deals.
