nokitsch: Your plan will probably work, but personally, I think it would be easier just to walk into an Orange shop and have them sell you a sim card and set up your phone. There's usually a wait to get service in an Orange shop, but the advantage is that they will set up your paperwork and get the card working on your phone. They will also sell you additional credit.
If you buy the sim card from eBay, it will probably be ok, but if there's a glitch, it will be hard for you to get it resolved. Also, the Orange shop will sell you the right size sim card so you won't have to cut it down.
You will need to select your plan after you get the phone working. When I was there in May, I used the 2euro daily "Max" plan. I believe that you have to activate it each day that you use it. Otherwise, if you don't specify a plan, it will debit your balance on a per MB rate, which could drain your balance faster.
