I have sold some things on ebay it is easy. It will walk you through listing your item. Just make sure you are setting your prices right and make sure you don't over charge on shipping but get enough to cover your costs.

Yes I have sold and bought over ebay! Its fairly easy because they give you step by step information on what to do, but if it at all gets confusing they have a "tech support" section in the help catagory where you can go online and talk to an ebay tech person and ask any questions you have, they will talk you through it. I'm sorry but i cannot remember waht the actually section is called but it is in the help section and it is a customer help sort of thing.
The other tip I can give you is to make sure you add pictures...it cost a couple $ but when people are shopping on ebay that is the best way to see what you are getting. So the more info the better
Lastly, always put your price at $##.99. ex. $9.99 rather then $10.00. It looks cheaper even if its only a penny and it catches peoples interst!
Oh and once you have sold a couple items you will get positive or nrgative feedback which can allow you to place items at "Buy it Now" which most people like!!
Hope that helps!

Well I have never sold any thing on ebay but yes I am a regular customer there and I buy a lot of things from the site and I feel it is a very nice way to shop. I can get a feel of the thing and also the specification. I search about the positives and the negatives of the products and once I am happy about the information I just buy the thing and maximum time I go for cash on delivery option so it is very easy for me to pay after I check the thing and that feels safe.

It is easy to sell on eBay so long as you have a clear auction description, and photograph. Make sure you abide by eBay's rules with your auction too and you will do ok

I have sold a few things on ebay. What I would suggest you do is research the type of item you would like to sell and see if it is a good seller and how much you can expect it to go for. You can do this buy lookiing it up on ebay and seeing what success other people have had with a similar item. Also I would suggest starting your auction prices on the lower side so people get more interested in the item. If it's priced too high you won't get any traffic.

I have sold some things, but I find that genrally, their fees are quite high for some items. If your item is over a certain amount, you have to pay ebay a huge amount of commission, which stinks. Before selling your item/s, see if they are selling at moderate-satisfactory prices already.
