EBAY

For the last several years my daughter, son-in-law, and two grandsons have bought and sold many things on Ebay.com -- X-Box games, jewelry, Univ. of Wisconsin Badger football tickets, and cosmetics. Although she has been very happy with her purchases, I had no interest in purchasing second hand merchandise from people who were totally foreign to me.

Recently I happened to mention to my daughter that the drugstore no longer carried the hair color I needed and the website that carried my favorite eye cream had doubled its price. Once again she encouraged me to buy what I needed on Ebay for much lower prices than retail stores. In addition she said, “The products aren’t second hand, but factory seconds.” Well, I thought, I might as well try. And so I opened an account on Ebay and not only found the hair color I needed, for a reduced price, but in addition I did not have to pay a shipping charge.

I’m now a strong supporter of Ebay and amazed at the modern technology of the 21st century. What could be better, it’s inexpensive, is shipped right to my door, and I pay for it with my PayPal account.
