eBay is a business, currently a very big business with local sites in many countries. They aren't, however, a business that you can buy items from - they provide 'a platform' to allow eBay members to buy from and sell to each other.
It's a kind of E-business,c2c exactly, which means all buying and selling are on-line.

How do you get your money when you sell your item on eBay?
Most buyers will want to pay for their items using PayPal so you need to have a PayPal account. Once the money is in your PayPal account, you can either spend it directly from there, or you can draw it down to your own bank account.
(Sellers can offer other payment methods on their listings, such as checks/cheques, but if the buyer choses to use PayPal, the seller cannot refuse to accept that method of payment.)

What happens after you win a bid on eBay?
You pay for the item and the seller ships it to you. I recommend you pay with PayPal. Make sure the seller has excellent feedback and has sold more than a few items. The more they have sold the better. Do not buy from anyone with less than 95% feedback.

How to Use Visa or American Express Gift Cards on PayPal
They make wonderful gifts and spend easier than cash. Gift cards from Visa or American Express are perfect for shopping on the internet which requires electronic payment. The money stays on the card until it is spent or until more cash is added to it. If the card is lost, it can be canceled and replaced and you won't be out any money.
When you get an American Express or Visa gift Certificate or card it is very important to go through the process of registering it online. This protects your card if stolen or lost and it makes it easier to use the card on PayPal. To be able to use the American Express or Visa card with PayPal, the website will attempt to verify the card by confirming your address with the credit card company. If you have not registered the card, there is no way of knowing to whom it is registered and it will be rejected. Your home address on the card account and the address on your PayPal account must match to earn verification.
There is still a way to link your Visa or American Express Gift Certificate or Cards to your PayPal account if it is rejected, but the process can be very cumbersome. You must enroll in their Expanded Use Verification process and it will take a couple of days to complete the enrollment. What this involves is having PayPal charge a very small amount to the card and include in the transaction a four-digit number that will become your code to confirm the transaction. The process can take 2-4 days, delaying whatever purchase you were planning to make.
PayPal is an excellent way to pay for transactions on the internet, giving you extra security and making the process simpler. You won't have to go through the process of entering your personal information and the information on where to ship the product is saved. Millions of merchants on the internet prefer PayPal for payment including several people who sell items on eBay.
