Hi everyone! It's Citywildcat, a longtime Pay Pal and Ebay user (11 or 12 years?). If you're like me, I really hate paying retail for anything, especially with the economy the way it is! Heck, who doesn't want to save money anyway? If there's something I want (I must pay retail to get my hair cut and colored), I ask the stylist what products she reccommends for me. I make a note of it and ALWAYS get a much better buy on Ebay. Of course, I pay through Pay Pal. Because of all my buying, I buy so many things (I never shop at a mall), I sometimes forget what I bought and when. The other important element is what I paid for shipping. As a savvy buyer, once a week or so, I look at my Pay Pal transactions and make sure I've received everything I've paid for. Often, I compare what is on the seller's shipping label for postage to what they quoted in the listing. Sometimes I find that the seller has charged much more than what the postage label says. By using Pay Pal for scanning and tracking items and shipping costs, I can easily find all the information I need in one place and even contact Pay Pal if I've been overcharged for shipping. It's extremely handy for large volume buyers like myself. As I said, why pay retail when you don't have to? Thanks for reading my tip and I hope you find it handy enough to vote for my tip! All the best, Citywildcat
