    I am new to this online shopping thing. I went to ebay and searched for a product and i got many results for that product with the starting bid on only 0,99$ and rarely it got over 3$. Let's say that there are only 2 hours left and I place a bid (1$) and no one else places a bid above me. Will I get that product for just 1$ (+sheeping fees) or are there any other fees (hidden ones).
    Actually what I am trying to ask is what would I actually pay for it.

    Also If I pay by PayPayl, would I have to pay the sheeping fee by PayPal as well?

    scroll down to the bottom of the listing or check above # of bids, location at the top to see if there's any shipping specified.

    Also on the search result page, FREE = $0 shipping, [calculate] or $x = shipping fee there.

    and yes you pay for what you win for provided there's no reserve price.

    example:
    item $5 (ends in x hours)
    you bid $5, you win, its yours

    item $5 (reserve)
    you bid $5 = reserve not met
    you bid "reserve price" = al yours

    Yes, you would have to pay shipping costs via PayPal if you chose that method of payment for the item. When you do the PayPal checkout, the shipping costs will automatically be applied to the total cost. If the seller offers multiple shipping options, you'll see a drop down box with the different options listed. Just select your preferred method and update your total, then finish and pay.
