Hi – I am an established seller on eBay. eBay has been my full time job for 4 years, and I have sold over 12,000 items.
Please visit paypal and read about it. Paypal is basically an electronic payment service where people can send money back and forth. It is tied to a credit card or bank account. Paypal charges a fee of approx 2.5% of the transaction amount.
Please email me directly and I can share more information with you.

First, go to the site and READ everything about selling. It's really not hard, but there are things you need to know. On eBay, you pay to list your item. Fees depend on what the starting bid is. You can do all kinds of upgrades on your listing for extra fees. EBay takes a percentage of your sales called Final Value Fees. Paypal also takes a percentage if the buyer pays by paypal. There is way too many things you need to know if go through on here. Go to the site though and it'll take you through the steps for setting up an account.

you have to have a credit card maybe a banking account with allowable funds to pay for the listing fee...there's a really small fee for listing and they get a certain percentage of everything you sell. another thing you might want to do is set up or get somebody to set up a html page code to put on ebay and just use continuously for every item and fill in the blanks so to speak. that is if you plan to put alot on there. otherwise a small description would do the trick too and a photo would do... maybe any restrictions or bidding guidlines shipping info and anything you might want to put on there too

Ebay has a fee schedule and so does Paypal. Go to the help section and type in your question. You should find the answer.
good luck
