[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 321481, member: 1233"] Yes. Ebay is pretty easy to set up. Just be sure you think about shipping before you start. The post office will provide all the labels and boxes fro Priority mail. They have flat rate boxes that are great. You don't have to weigh things or scrounge up or buy boxes, which can save you substantial amounts of both time and money. If you set up your auctions to be groups of items that will fill a flat rate box it makes listing go a lot easier. I would set things to fill small size flat rate boxes and if a buyer wins more than 1 auction you can put them into a larger size flat rate box. Or fill the box full and state that you do not combine shipping because the auction fills a flat rate box. You can print labels for priority mail that have the postage included. You have to either use a full sheet label and have half of it be your receipt or use regular paper and tape it on with package sealing tape. I cover the label with tape strips that overlap so that if the label gets wet it does not run. The tape is cheaper than the labels for me. Paypal is pretty easy to set up, so is ebay. So it may be worth it. Otherwise look in the phone book for consignment places. We have a chain in the city called Plato's Closet that is consignment for name brand clothing for teens. I find them overly picky and proud of their stuff but they are ALWAYS busy. They are very concerned with name brands and styles. [/QUOTE]
