What steps can I take to trade safely on eChinabid?

 

Trading on eChinabid is generally very safe. There are also a few steps that you can take to help ensure that your eChinabid purchase is a positive one.

The first, and most important, rule of thumb is to learn about the seller before you make a purchase. The best way to do this is to check their feedback . Look for how high their feedback score is and what percentage of their score is positive. You should also read the comments left by the seller's previous trading partners to see what they had to say about their transaction.

Secondly, if you have questions about a particular item, click on the "Ask Seller a Question" link to send an email to the seller with your question. Remember, most sellers want you to be comfortable with your purchase decision, and are happy to answer your questions. You should not bid on the item until you are satisfied with the answer you have received from the seller.

After you have won the item, make sure that you are paying with confidence . On eChinabid, PayPal is the safest, fastest, and easiest way to pay. PayPal allows you to pay securely with a credit card, and offers significant payment protection.

We strongly discourage our members from using instant cash transfer services . Bidders should be especially cautious if one or both of these are the only payment methods accepted by the seller. Never bid on listings where the seller only accepts cash .

Following these simple steps can help to ensure that your eChinabid experience is a safe one.
