Good Morning!
I want to start to sell some things on ebay, and need some advice. I am thinking that I should have an account separate from my regular household checking account for fees, money earned, etc. Also, I'm confused about shipping costs. Do I need to have a scale? or is the "flat rate shipping" a better way to go?
I have plenty of past experience with buying from ebay, and know that shipping costs were always a factor in which auction I would go for. I'd love to hear from anyone who can give me any suggestions or tips on getting started. Thanks!!
