Recently I've started to use eBay to sell some of my unwanted stuff like Games and old US Comics and things.

It's really easy to get registered with eBay - which you have to if want to sell or buy - and you can load upyour items to sell easily.

ebAY are American, of course, but they have a UK based wensite too now and sometimes they have days where you can list your items and not have to pay a fee - just if they sell of course.

The fee usually is 20p to sell something and then 5 per cent of the winning bid - so it can work out expensive if you are selling cheap things I suppose. Some people get around it by advertising things for £1 then charging higher postage fees.

I've already sold three items through eBay and been paid by the buyer quite promptly each time. lthough sometimes people don't pay. All you do when your auction is over - is email the winner and give them your address and they send you a cheque of Postal oder and you send the goods after they've paid you. Easy or what?

EbAy is the best known and the biggest auction site on the net - so if you are selling or buying articles - use the Best

Do they have a policy on what happens if people don't send goods - it seems rather open to abuse? Good op though
