Actually for buying eBay can be beat, especially for cameras and computer items, whether new or added memory chips. Just "Google" the item(s) you want and then compare prices. Many "buy it now" items include additional charges for postage.
I like to check alternate prices and sources before locking onto eBay. eBay can be a winner, though, but not always.
Ditto.
Sometimes it is very hard to beat Ebay in used tech. Part of my job is to list used but good tech or denoted with problems if someone wants it for parts. I can make a deal on some nice DVCams and disk arrays lol...
Seriously I expect to be shut down or scaled back to straight break/fix. I was told when this started a few months ago by the head guy I was designed to fail on purpose, I figured I would do the best I could with what I was given which wasn’t a hell of a lot.

You are right yyou have to know what you are buying to know whether it is a good deal or not. I’ve often found thigns from stores $20 or more cheaper than what they are lsited on eBay for. You have to be careful and not impulsive.
