hey.. Ebay emailed me also..

legal nga..

[krets pulpol]

received an email too, similar to other ebay sites, less items for sale unlike in the u.s. 

[dunforgiven]

just got a mail today saying there's now an eBay Philippines site (www.ebay.ph)

wala pang masyadong laman, obviously since bago... but i think this is a good sign. Hope we can already join Paypal for the payment service

what do you guys think about this?

[JhunDV]

This is good but I hope we get to be accepted for Paypal so that we can also transact for other eBay sites. 

[keating]

Finally on our own home in the Philippines....ebay.

Jhundv is right paypal is one of the best options for payment system so that we can deal also internationally by using this payment option.

i emailed paypal 2 weeks ago and they said wala pa sila sa Pinas. since meron na palang ebay philippines, maybe malapit na magkaroon since paypay is an ebay company.

[groucho]

As far as I'm concerned, I would think that eBay Phil. will be largely no good unless it opens PayPal for us to use.

yeah that's another consequences pala......since majority of ebay users like me will most likely buy on the international site.....

guys how many here are paypal users? secure ba magpurchase online (i.e from ebay) using paypal? thanks 

[krets pulpol]

some of the sellers in the u.s. opt not to allow paypal payments due to higher transaction costs in getting their money.

as i said before, it won't be that similar to what american ebay is offering because there aren't that much sellers here so there's nothing to search for.  i have visited, australian and singaporean ebay and there aren't enough items to bid too.

I'm a PayPal user so I'd be happy to stick back to ebay US. Exactly as krets pulpol put it...there aren't enough items to bid too. In US sites...wow..u can spend one FULL day searching & it's still ain't enough!

pchin, paano ka nakakuha ng PayPal account?  Baka naman US-based ang credit card mo?

I'm a foreigner but working in the Philippines. My crdit card is not US-based but other country

Pa-ride naman!!! Hehehe

I purchased a coupleof things from E-bay US before by using Western Union Auctions Payment but not all sellers accept this payment method and medyo hassle since you get additional charges for the processing fees by Western Union

I also picked some up when I was in the US last year using money order payment... The efficiency of the US Postal Service really makes me want to cry when I use the POs here...

i have a paypal account and it's very good and secure.  this is the most preferred payment method in ebay US and UK.  mas mahal pag ginamit yung western union, bidpay. 

shalom & happy new year to all

[groucho]

Which actually brings us back to our original problem.  Darn PayPal doesn't operate in this darn country.

Yep agree!  Tho the initial new a/c process setup was a bit hassle & inconvenient (if you would like to send money or make payment), but definitely worthwhile! The security check is stringent. Many verification steps involved. Glad I'm a member making purchasing online esp in USA a much enjoyable experience. Most important thing is it's secure & there's no worry of credit card fraud or error.

[Jermi]

eBay.ph is the best!

Got this baby off the site for 20,100 BRAND new.



btw, this retails here for over 55,000

its a digital video cam that can take as much as 60 mins of MPEG4 videos.  Not to mention that its a digital camera, voice recorder and mp3 player too...

its called the Samsung Miniket, it'll be the next "must have" gadget

[Dowals]

I have made several purchases already at the ebay.ph, some i got at good prices.

But I wanted to share my recent purchase that went bad.  I saw a copy of Pretty Woman recently there that was priced around P250, item decription stated that it was bought in Korea, region 3 encoding.  I contacted the seller to confirm if the DVD was indeed original, a girl named MONETTE answered my queries and confirmed that it was an original.  So I placed a higher bid (there was an existing bid) and won the item several days after.  The seller then contacted me to deposit the payment of the item plus the shipping since the dvd was in ANTIPOLO and no time for her sister to meet up with me in Ortigas Center. after depositing I waited two (2) days for the dvd to arrive, to my suprise this is what i got:




Looked like it came from Quiapo

I have complained to the seller that she sold me a pirated DVD    She promised the refund the money but it's been 5 days already and she's been rejecting my calls.  The shipping cost was even higher that the value of the pirated DVD she gave me!

I placed a negative feedback but somehow, she was able to hide her feedbacks from public view! one clever liar, girl pa naman 



A word of caution to fellow members, Please beware of an (multi-personality) ebay.ph seller named, MONETTE VIVAR or her fictitious sister ALMA BLANCA or ALMA LUCERO, goes by the user id ablanca888 and phone number 09212230449  (mods, please delete if this is unecessary)

Halata bang masama loob ko?

Thanks pchin, now i'm thinking twice dealing in ebay.ph

unless i get to inspect the item before closing the deal 

[bachwitz]

Thanks pchin, now i'm thinking twice dealing in ebay.ph

unless i get to inspect the item before closing the deal 

I was able to sell 3 items in Ebay.ph. All transaction are hand to hand (kaliwaan ika nga) 

I guessed delivery is not a good option here in the PI. Hard to track sellers unlike in the US.
