    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!

    It costs around 2 bucks on average to post auctions. Depending on what you put up of course.

    Its very safe bro, ive been using it for nearly two years now You can save alot of cash on there. Dont get carried away with bidding though, research prices before hand and always check someones reputation record to see how other people have found the persons service.
