I have bid for a phone £3.20 which is a ridiculous price, would they sell it to me if it is the highest bid? It has no reserve.

I don't no £3.20 is low, you may get lucky.

It is £10.50.

The phone is worth £50-£70.

If it has no reserve then they have no choice but to sell it at the price it goes far.

check the descriptions of the ebay items carefully because a lot of people just use fancy wording to rip you off.
make sure the user selling the items has a good star rating with good feedback and you will be fine.

What's your limit, I hope you get that phone bud, if not I will get Miles to send them a nasty letter.

I primarily do most of my online shopping on eBay. Just not having to fill out my card details when I purchase as they're already stored is a big plus.

Just make sure you're buying off someone with good feedback and most of the time you can't go wrong. If the phone is worth £60ish then I'd expect it to sell for that. Most people (like me) bid in the very last few seconds. The only way you get something cheap in my experience is when either they have misspelt the title listing or not provided enough info, they have dodgy feedback or the listing ends in the early hours of the morning.

Either try and win it with a last minute bid or if that's not convenient then set your 'maximum bid' to a figure you are happy to pay and hope you get it.
