Buying on eBay | Easier and Cheaper than any eCommerce Site

When you are planning to buy something, Watch around on most eCommerce sites. I bet you will find others price lesser than eBay. Now you're thinking "Then why the hell is this guy telling that eBay is cheaper???"

I say wait!!! Let me finish

eBay has almost similar but comparatively higher price than other sites, but wait this is not done yet. When you go on other sites, they say that its discounted price and no coupon is applicable for that. While on eBay, time by time there are so many useful coupons (That I will be posting on this blog soon) which take the price down significantly and you get a lot better price under the umbrella of eBay Guarantee (Will cover this topic later).

Now lets understand the trick behind. When you get discount on other sites, its mostly borne by either the seller or the third party (like banks) but when eBay shares a coupon it is mostly borne by eBay itself and here comes the point why eBay is cheaper than others. so when something is sold on eBay, eBay charges the seller only 10 to 15% while it gives discount to the buyer of up-to 70% above the price discounted by seller untill it is specifically listed in eBay deals section.

For example when I searched for "sandisk 16gb pendrive 3.0" See what I got in search result-

Now imagine with a discount of flat Rs 200/- buy using coupon and then decide as after the discount, you will get the pendrive in Rs 375, which is the lowest in the market. Though there are some catches which need to be taken care of when you buy on eBay. I will cover this issue under separate topic "Learn how to buy safe and genuine products on eBay".
