first time ebay user

[jimmys]

Not sure if I should be posting this here but.....
I just registered with ebay today and wanted to bid on an item. When I placed my bid, it came back and said that for my protection, I could only bid on one item at a time. I checked the item, and my bid had never been received. I can't bid on anything else either. What is going on?

Hi jimmy, i think you would be best going to ebay site, and go into help and on left side click on " contact us " send them an email of your problem. They're pretty good at getting back to you.

Some sellers specify that you must have a feedback rating of at least 10, for example.

This may seem unfair, but contact the buyer direct and see if they will accept a bid from you.

It is a matter of trust between seller and buyer.

I have 100% positive feedback of 120 plus, gained by, if buying, paying immediately, and if selling, sending the goods, properly packaged as soon as possible, and not inflating the postage.

Also good communication is very important.

Do this and your ebay experience will be a happy one.
