      open a PayPal account

      PAY PAL ACCOUNT - Once you have opened an eBay account, go to the PayPal website and open a pay pal account so you will be able to collect your money faster. Online payment is the easiest way to get paid and safer than sending money through the mail. It also speeds up the turn around time for the buyer, meaning you don't have to wait for your money to be mailed to you so the buyers item can be shipped faster and they get it sooner, which is always a plus for both parties.

      take pictures with a digital camera

      DIGITAL CAMERA - Once you have your eBay account and your items to sell, you will need a digital camera to take pictures of the items. You don't have to take pictures if you don't want to, but items with pictures sell faster and sell for more money than items without a picture. When you buy something, you want to see what you're buying don't you? Well, the customer you sell to will too, so a digital camera really is needed. Be sure and take good pictures that are well lit and show the item from different angles. This lets the customer know exactly what they are buying and prevents any problems later.

      describe items fully and accurately

      DESCRIPTION - Next and most importantly, provide an accurate description of what you're selling. Make sure everything works and if something doesn't work or there's a scratch or defect, be sure and include the details in your description. You wouldn't want to buy something and be surprised with a defect when it arrives and no one else does, so be honest.
