What was the first thing you won?

when i was in first year we had gone to conference and all the persons there were given a coupons which were of the lucky draw at the end of third day of the conference and i won second prize. it was a small teddy bear lamp and i loved it. it was first thing i ever won anything in life like this and i felt great.

the little vampire takes a ride...novel by angela sommer bodenburg..the price very low and the shipping fees is affordable..but the item never arrive at home,so the seller return the money..huhu..but that was my first ever win in ebay..

I don't remember the first thing I won but I remember the one that affected me emotionally. I bought it for a new customer for her wedding. She likes horses and I saw a miniature at a bargain price on ebay. At the time I had a store and she was the first person that signed a good deal of money. I was excited, I spent all the time I could for her wedding plan and even faxed back and forth to her parents in another province because she asked me to do so. Even my husband cared so much about it. We felt that she had to get what the money was worth. Yet all we got was a cancellation along with her and a relative treatening us about legal dispute. Since we didn't do anything wrong, we talked to our lawyer and he said not to worry because we also had it all in writing. We returned whatever money and I never ever replied to the call her father made. He said sorry. and what would that word do? It won't give us back the time and effort we gave to her and her family. It won't pay us the mileage of looking for all the crap she asked us to find. I still have the mini horse I bought her. I keep it as a remainder that I am a business, not a charity. Nothing will be free for anyone. I will provide after I am paid. I will not provide for what people don't pay in advance. It's been 3 years now and I never meet a bride like that. Emotional brides are common, I met them all the time. That's why I can tell difference between emotional people and people without integrity. Sorry for the long story. I have to let it out.

i wanted to start selling to sell on ebay and the advice was given to me to start off by buying something, which i did - i bought a jade ring. as for selling stuff, i have sold a bunch of stuff on there and i continue to do so.

I haven't bidded yet in ebay but I was already able to sell one. The bidding closed yesterday and I am awaiting payment now so I can send the items.

The first thing I won, was a set of used business phones. They were very well taken care of. A small business just so happen to close their store and needed to get rid of somethings. I constantly shop on ebay because of the variety of things they have to offer. I used those phones in my home, and also gave a couple away to relatives. I have never sold anything on ebay, I just love to shop!!

The only things I have bid on (and won on them) are video games. I have won quite a few though, for really cheap. So yeah I am very happy to have gotten them! As for selling, I have never done that. I always worry about not getting what I want in return. Have you sold anything on there?
