A lot of you have been asking me to write about this for some time now. So here we go! I will try to make this short and to the point. Most of you message me and asking me omg how did you buy those $1200 authentic Chanel shoes for $100??? Well here is how and it doesn't always work but beginners luck is definitely a thing.
Basically EBAY is a place where you can win some amazing auctions at very low prices. Most big EBAY stores/sellers will start their listings as low as 99 cents in the hopes that it will go up higher, but this is not always the case. A lot of the times new sellers attempt to do this as well and that is when you get super lucky! why? well because they don't know what they are doing and you get the chance to get lucky and score it for a low price. The whole thing is quite psychological if you think about it.
So here I will give you step by step of how I buy on auction and win Gucci shoes for $30 or even Chanel shoes for that same price. Of course most of the time they are second hand but who cares! No one actually wears their heels more than 3 times. Or so that's what I assume and of course you can always look at the photos of the listing and decide for yourself. Alright here we go.
1. You will need an EBAY account.
2. I always shop and search by brand and size.
3. Always select the lay out to be priced from low-high pricing and make sure you select auction style listings only.
4. Find what you like and click on the "watch this item" Icon.
5. Continue to watch it and set your reminder via Siri to check that auction 5 minutes before it ends.
6. Bid ONLY in the last 5-10 seconds. If you bid earlier you're only screwing yourself and losing the chance of the item selling for less $$. People forget this and thats how the seller gets lucky. But you as the buyer is what counts here.
7. Never overbid. What do I mean by this? Set a price in your mind for that particular item and never go over that amount. Example shoes are at $25 in the last 6 seconds and in my mind I'm not willing to pay more than 50. In that last 6 seconds I will bid $50 and if I win and don't get outbid than amazing and If I do well then it wasn't meant to be. onto the next one. I used to get upset when I lost auctions but not anymore! You have to take it with a grain of salt and keep it moving. it's a thing after all.
Good luck!! Feel free to drop me a comment or email me with your wins! Would love to see all of you saving some $ and buying some amazing designer goods as H&M prices :)
