hi there,
today i paid this online shop i saw on Facebook. it is my first time to do online shopping. she said she will be shipping the items today. i have read from her profile the feed backs from her costumers and it was good, so i will just wait. my sister also ordered some stuffs from eBay and it was also successful. but last time she ordered a pair of shoes from an online shop on Facebook, and after paying, they closed the account!!!! i hate people who are like that just because of money.
i hope the items you ordered arrive soon. just wait for a couple of days because it will still be shipped. if not then you should contact the seller. good luck to us. i hope my items arrive soon too.

ooooooh it's from the U.S. i bet it was really expensive, the item plus the shipping fee
yeah trust is important, just give it some time first and then if something fails (hopefully it doesn't happen), treat is as a lesson. for now, just enjoy the moment thinking you will be having your shoes soon. i only ordered some swimsuits hehehehe

Ive bought alot of items from Ebay and I have indeed checked the sellers profiles to read their feedbacks, check their ratings, four stars, five stars, ect. Ive also checked the actual brand(s) websites for prices as well to do a comparison to the sellers price. If the sellers price is ALOT lower, then thats where Id raise the red flag on myself. People/Companies can in fact make dupes and fakes; and can of course beat other prices knowing that people want a deal.
I "have" been conned by Ebay sellers before. I purchased MAC Cosmetics not knowing that they were fakes. One "real" MAC Eyeshadow Pigment costs about $20 EACH. I went on Ebay and found that I could have sixteen MAC Eyeshadow Pigments for only $50. Yeah, I got suckered in. I paid the money, waited and recieved the items. I thought everything was cool until I recieved a video update from one of the makeup artists I was subscribed to on YouTube.
I watched the video and was shocked that everything they pointed out on how to spot fake MAC Products was right there in front of me. I was so disappointed. Even then, I never thought to check their profiles for ratings or feedbacks. When I went back to check them out, they have in fact deleted their entire Ebay account. Sadly, I couldnt email them to get my money back.
I believe that you have done the right thing by checking them out. If the seller has stayed on Ebay this long to achieve all these 4394 stars and earned the title as Top Rated Seller, then I think you'd have nothing to worry about. But, this is just my opinion. I just hope that the item(s) are from the actual company. As Ive stated before, there are companies that can make dupes and fakes like purses, wallets, watches, clothing and so on.
I hope this helps! -MsDjHoodie
PS: Never buy from anyone that is over sea's. Just to be on the safe side.

Oh! Well, Im very sorry about the over sea's remark. Many shopping sites always suggest buyers and shoppers to be cautious when buying from another countries due to scammers. If I have offended you, Im very sorry.
I do hope you get what you paid for and that its good quality! :)

I think Ebay is a shoppers fantasys, so many bargain and so much variety and competition, i read in an earlier post that the cheap products are infact fake but i dont think that is always the case i got alot of make up, avon products, DVD's, CD's etc that i win from prizes therefore get at very little to no cost and it's alot cheaper to list the product for .99 cents then it is to choose the price i have found if you offer the people what they want give good service and only sell original authentic products then your price usually rise towards what the product is worth retail with a discount to keep the customer happy and delievery to your door!! What more can you ask for? I like that you can type anything into ebay what so ever and someone will be selling it! I have heard of a virgin mary looking piece of toast being sold for a ridiculous amount and someones friendship for a night to a lonely person!! I think it is a great way to put your products intouch with the world if you are a seller, you can check out your competitions prices and quality and make your product available to people around the globe. Now just to come up with that amazing idea!! I am sure you will get your shoes i think ebay is like going to the shops without heading out into the weather.

I am an ebay seller! Proud of it, and I've never scammed anyone out of anything. What you do find on ebay most times that the ebay seller are more worried about the ebay buyers than the other way around. Most sellers are selling to receive money for their product. So they will ship your item out. Now if they don't, but I'm more than positive you will. All you have to do is go to the Resolution center at the right top of ebay page and open a case that you're buyer did not ship your item. You'll get your money back if the buyer does not respond withing 4 days. But anyway, lets just hope this doesn't happen. Good Luck
