iouow-up service n you neea u. many sellers don’t have the expertise or facilities to provide services for the goods they sell. If that’s the case with your seller, be sure you’re willing to forfeit that protection before placing a bid.
Know the auction site
• Check how the auction works. Don’t assume that the rules used by one Internet auction site apply to another. Some sites offer step-by-step tutorials that take potential buyers through the bidding process. Taking a few minutes to go through the tutorial might save you frustration or disappointment later.
• Find out what protections the auction site offers buyers. Some sites provide free insurance or guarantees for items that are undelivered, inauthentic or just not what the seller claimed.
If you run into a problem during your transaction, try to work it out directly with the buyer or the auction web site. If that doesn’t work, file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission by calling toll-free 877FTC-HELP (382-4357) or visiting the FTC’s Web site at www.ftc.gov.
