Can someone please help me get started with selling on Ebay?

**hsmommyto1** · 03-07-2003, 11:30 AM

I've had pretty good success with selling items on half.com. I just received a really nice digital camera for my birthday, so now I really would like to use it to start selling stuff on Ebay. I don't have a clue how to get started though. Does anyone have some tips they can offer me? Thanks so much.

start out thinking about what types of things you want/can sell..

then look up those items to get a feel for what they sell for

then if you dont already know, get familiar with how to make your listings look good using html

I gree with Heather. Especially with the html. I did a search for basic HTML tags and found enough info to spruce up my ads a little bit. As far as selling make sure you make everything clear in your ad. Read lots of other ads and see what kind of things are mentioned. Good luck to you.

Don't have to many auctions at one time to avoid confusion. Sometimes the buyers PayPay or other payment info won't match their ebay ID and you can get mixed up!
