[access-uk] Re: ebay website

Hi David,

It's becoming more difficult to get a item on auction due to automatic bid 
software now being used more and more. I lost a bid by 1p last week because of 
the auto bidding software. Now I prefer to buy it now, at least I know I've got 
it.

Jim.

  Jim,

  I would agree with you.  also, buy it now items are usually quite expensive 
and can often be found cheaper elsewhere.  You are much more likely to get a 
bargain in an auction.

    Hi Wendy,

    What I normally do if I want to know if the item is buy it now is to start 
a search for an item, then do a "control F" to search for the keywords "buy it 
now" If the item you searched for is available as a buy it now product, the buy 
it now search will be a link. Hit enter on the link and all the items that are 
for sale as a buy it now item will be displayed. I don't use the compare link, 
I usually troll through the list and decide for myself if it's a good bargain 
or not.
    HTH
    Jim.

      Hi Jim

      After searching there's a thing called "compare items" which I assume 
lets you look at the items side by side when you tick the box. Is this 
something that a jaws user would be unable to do? Also how do you know if 
something can be bought now or is a bidding item?

      Thanks for your assistance.

      Wendy

        Hi Wendy,

        I use Ebay, it takes a little getting used to, but its a great way to 
shop for different items. You can try it out without registering at first, just 
to get used to the lay-out. One thing to watch for, is in the search box are  
the words "Start new search" you have to delete these words before you enter 
the keywords you are searching for,

        Good luck.
        Jim.

          Hi list

          Has anyone ever used Ebay - is it accessible and is it possible to 
take part in the auctioning side? Thought I'd ask before trying it out.

          Thanks.
