I've been using eBay more frequently now while at home. Amazon is typically my first choice but some items are less expensive on eBay or hard to find elsewhere. I only use the Buy It Now option (no bidding). You can see the seller ratings and avoid anyone who seems problematic. Items are generally shipped very quickly; just make sure they're not coming from overseas.

Many items include free shipping these days. eBay makes it easy for sellers and buyers to contact each other and will mediate any disputes if necessary.

Once you have your account and payment methods set up, eBay is easy to use.
