If you are on a budget (and who isn’t?), a wonderful place for
find home decorating accessories is auction sites like eBay. But
before you go a’baying, here is some advice based on personal
experience (make that major disasters!) to keep in mind:
1. Before you bid on anything, check the shipping cost. This
cost varies greatly among vendors. That $2.99 artwork isn’t
such a great deal if you are charged $80 for shipping! And
believe me, there are even higher shipping rates out there!
2. Try to buy color neutral. Never try to match a color in
your room with the color on the screen. It simply does
not translate well. Everyone’s screen shows color a bit
differently. Any you might end up with hot magenta when
you wanted apple red. So stick with neutral accessories!
3. Check measurements! Don’t assume because of how it looks in
the picture! The mirror that looks so large on the dresser
in the picture may look tiny in your room. That dresser may
be very small in reality, making the mirror appear large
(an old photographer’s trick!). So ask for measurements if
they are not included.
4. Choose to buy from a reliable seller. Check the feedback on
every vendor you deal with. If there is a lot of negative
feedback, take that as a warning and shop elsewhere! Don’t
set yourself up for a bad experience!
Ebay is fun and can be a great source of accessories, if you
use your brain before you use your charge card. And if you buy
something all wrong for your room – it can be a great place to
get rid of it. Remember - one man’s hideous eyesore is another
man’s chic treasure. Just make sure the eyesore doesn’t end up
in YOUR mailbox!
