Step 2

Step 3
Decide where you are going to buy your Nintendo DS. Shopping online may be more convenient, but go to your local stores and browse their selections if you are the type of person who needs to touch and feel things before making a purchase.

Step 4
Check the Web for prices. Even if you are going to buy locally, you can make use of the Internet to see what the price should be for the system. You don't want to get ripped off.

Step 5
Visit eBay, the premier site for buying all things used. Use the search engine to look for "Nintendo DS" and you will find lots of items.

Pay for your Nintendo DS online. Using PayPal is the best way to pay on eBay, but you can also use a check or money order. Most online retailers also accept credit cards.

Step 7
Wait for your product to be delivered. If you bought it online, it could take some time to arrive depending on how it was shipped. If the system arrives damaged or doesn't work, contact the seller or retailer.
