New to Bonsai's

Well I'm actually new to just gardening in general. I was on Ebay and figured it would be cool to have a Bonsai tree so I searched them up. I found a dealer and am unsure of what to buy.

Keep in mind I've never grown anything in my life except for a vegatable garden. I'm just looking for some guidance and tips so I do not kill the tree as it is growing.

Here is the Ebay link for all his Bonsai trees. I have no idea which one would be easiest. http://stores.ebay.ca/seed-spot_Bonsai_W0QQfsubZ4954968

The FAQ said I should post my location so I am in New Brunswick, Canada. The plant will be grown indoors seeing as there is 4 feet of snow on the ground currently.

Thank you.

Hi from NS! I really want to 'talk' to you, but there isn't enough room here to do it right (for a newbie), and it would be great if you could email me (just click on my name to get add) so we could talk properly. Do not put any money on eBay (yet, anyhow!) because you have no way of knowing what to get or how to take care of it once you get it home - it's not a house plant, and in any case without lots of experience (plant-wise & eBay-wise) buying living things that you can't examine properly is not a great idea.
