Hey bro, yes its safe. I use eBay all the time to buy and sell stuff. And yes, even if your stuff doesnt sell they charge you. I forget what the cost is, but im sure if you got to the eBay you can find out how much. Also, if you going to buy/sell stuff on eBay you might want to look into signing up to except www.PayPal.com. That way you can buy stuff using a credit card and except credit cards. Good luck!Quote:
