They do download the block headers but not the entire blockchain. They take a few minutes to synchronise and take up much lesser space. For daily users, this is recommended.

First time buying a bitcoin. Downloaded bitcoin core. Bought a bitcoin off ebay. Made a receiving URL, and gave it to seller. Seller transfered it to the url I gave him. Yet when I open b.c.core there says there are no transactions, and my balance is still zero.

Why buy bitcoin in ebay? It is like to buy bread in a store specialized in clothing. Bitcoin can be bought in exchanges. It is true that ebay is for everything. And as such even for bitcoin. But even in my country in deep villages or areas there are stores who sell everything. Because of lack of consumers cannot is possible to be sold all the same things in separate stores for every specific product. That does not mean that even in the capital of the country where I live must be so. The same even for ebay. Can be bought there if it will be not possible to find bitcoin in their natural "store". Which are exchanges. From those everything is more easy to do, more fast and more professional.

Maybe your wallet isn't synched up to date with the blockchain for it to see it yet.

You could post your address or TX here so we can help you look it up on the blockchain or just find yourself a blockchain explorer to look it up yourself..

how do i sync my wallet?

Synchronizing a wallet means that the client is downloading the blocks from your peers. To do so, your client needs at least 1 outgoing connection. Go to Help>Debug Window> Information and you should see the connections. It should be something like
Code:
Number of connections: (In:58/Out:8)
Make sure you have at least 1 out. You will be fine as long as the Current number of blocks increases with time. Depending on your internet, CPU and IO speed, it can take up to a day. Leave it there till you see a tick at the bottom right of the client.

.
.HUGE.

Yeah but they way overcharge because at ebay you're paying with Paypal I guess and which is why they charge extra, I wouldn't recommend it. Other exchanges like LBC are better for buying/selling BTC but lately I am seeing big price differences there also, don't know what to make of it.

sometime bitcoin transaction will delay,its happen to me several time. and its happen because many thing,
and people from coinbase will answer that :
Brian from Coinbase here. Sorry you experienced delays! There have been some issues in the past that we are working to improve. Coinbase sends a high volume of bitcoin transactions (often in parallel across many machines), and as a result we sometimes encounters issues that are uncommon elsewhere. In this case, I believe the root of the issue was around spending coins where the inputs were not in a block yet. We broadcast a large number of transactions, and sometimes other nodes receive them out of order (the transaction that spends the change could arrive before the transaction that generated the change). The official client, bitcoind, had an issue (unclear whether it was a bug, or intended) where a transaction in the orphan pool that got connected up (it's input transaction finally arrived) did not subsequently get relayed to the rest of the network like a regular transaction. We've been chatting with Gavin about this to see what solutions could make it into a near term release.

Your wallet balance is showing 0.10 BTC. 

You just need to sync your wallet completely. Present Core database file size is 55.5 GB, So you need to wait till your wallet sync completely to view your transaction in your wallet.

You need to leave your wallet OPEN, thats all.  It will sync itself and download all the database (55.5 GB) into your computer.  It depends on your internet speed, how much time you need to wait (1 day or 1 week).

Bitcoin it's already in your wallet, but you need to sync your wallet. It will take very long time to sync if you are new with bitcoin core.

If you want faster way, try to backup your private key, then import export your private key into blockchain.info. After you see your bitcoin balance, move your bitcoin asap into another wallet like multibit or electrum.

So you don't have to wait very long time, and download all transaction.
