Setting up shop

[littlebillie]

Hi I just wondered if anyone had experience of setting up a shop on ebay what the were the pros and cons.

If your setting up shop for the first time it might be best to read up on eBay guidelines and also understand the fees.

Some of the pros would be the amount of buyers. Which means you can most items. You can also wait for £1 selling fees which make a difference to the amount of money you get.

Cons would be the scamming. But you can mitigate that quite a lot with send items tracked etc. Of course other marketplaces like facebook and shpock you can sell the item locally with no fees at all. The level of depth to it all is quite overwhelming.

As others have pointed to on the forum here there is a UK website which has a calculator and some articles which might help.
