Buying a Battery Charger From Ebay Motors : is it a Bargain?

June 2nd, 2010 Monica No comments

Ebay Motors is a great place to find a battery charger for your automotive and recreational needs. You probably already know the Ebay name since they have been the number one auction site on the internet for quite some time. By using Paypal or other payment services you have guarantees in place that make buying from Ebay safer than ever. Thanks to their ability to create storefronts you can find items for traditional auction style bidding or for items you can buy right now.

Whether you own a Honda motorcycle, an antique Dodge truck, or Yamaha ATV you need a trickle charger or tender to keep the battery up when not in use. Why not shop and find the best bargain around. While writing this article I found that prices varied widely. The lowest was a starting bid of $.01 which the seller probably has a minimum price before he will accept the winning bid. The highest price was for a specialty 3 bank charger starting at $800. The majority of the prices were around $50 or less.

All of the prices depend on whether the charger was new or used. Many auctioneers will offer some sort of warranty on their used products. You will find many of the prices closer to retail for brand new devices, but occasionally you can catch one at a bargain. One thing to keep in mind is shipping and possible taxes could raise the price beyond retail sometimes even for used products so be aware!

The last I looked for auto battery chargers there were several hundreds of choices. These included tenders, manual chargers, and trickle chargers. Units that offered from 2.5 amps to 300 amp and 6 and 12 volt . Manufacturers included Century, Schumacher, Deltran, and Battery Tender. With such a large number of choices you are sure to find what you need at a price you can afford.

Whatever type of charger you need you are likely find it on Ebay Motors. With a little shopping around and sometimes a little luck a cheap bargain can be had. If you keep aware of retail prices, shipping, and possible taxes you will find more buying power for your hard earned dollar.

Robbed of $546. by a Car dealer on ebay!!! need help…I bought an item on eBay from the Chicago Car Auction,?

May 30th, 2010 Monica 4 comments

From the ebay Id: waukeganautoauction I bought for a boat and on the listing it said shipping is worldwide, so I went ahead and bidded on the item. After winning the item, I read that the buyer wants the payment in 3 days (paypal not accepted) or else I forfeit the item and I will get a negative feedback on eBay for not paying for the item in time.
So I went ahead and paid for the item. after paying for the item, I realize that to have the item shipped to me is extremely expensive because I live in the Caribbean island of Dominica, and shipping from the USA only happens in Florida, I must have a trucking company haul/carry (Cost me $1000. cheapest) the boat from Illinois to Riviera Beach, Fl then have tropical shipping ship the boat ($2300) to the Caribbean island of Dominica. , the buyer is charging me $25 for each additional day after the end of 7 day which he has the boat in his yard. I found myself in a bad deal on ebay, and the seller won’t accept my calls. Help Please!!!!!

Do I have to Sell my Item on Ebay if the auction is won?

May 15th, 2010 Monica 3 comments

I told my son to put my motorcycle on ebay and he started the bid at 5,000 and I already had offers for 11,000 from people besides on ebay. Well he did not put a reserve price and the bid got all the way up to 9,200 and I was not planning on selling it for near that cheap. The winner emailed me and I told him that I was not going to sell it for that low here is what he said.

“I won the auction at $9200 which makes you contractually obligated. It is not my fault that no “reserve” price was set on that auction. I have reported this situation to e-bay and have spoken with my attorney.”

Do I have to sell it to him? What going to happen if I decide not to sell to him? Last thing were does it say in ebay that I am obligated to sell my item to the winner I mean it makes since to do so but I mean they offered as little as possible.
