Today, more and more people are setting up websites in order to sell their products. Any person or company has a number of options for selling their products online. Ebay and also Yahoo offer storefronts for people to sell online.
A more affordable option though is to setup your own website and sell products. This way you can avoid a higher monthly fee and also listing fees. Such carts as Zend Cart, Angora, and Oscommerce for an online store. You would need to know a little about programming, FTP, and server configuration.
But all this can shown to you through an
online tutorial for oscommerce. You will also find that oscommerce has a number of contributions and mods available for an oscommerce store.
osCommerce also has great support through their forums.

Ebay changes some seller policies
Ebay changes some seller policies
Just recently, Ebay, the 500 pound gorilla of auction sites, changed some of its seller policies. The biggest one is seller feedback. Just last year, Ebay decided to prevent sellers from giving buyers negative feedback. This was even in the case where the buyer failed to purchase items they bid on or used "Buy it Now".
Sellers found this to be unfair. Especially when buyers failed to follow through on the purchase they agreed to. Sellers could only open up a dispute, wait nearly two weeks, and then finally just receive a refund of selling and listing fees (if the item qualified for a listing fee refund).
Ebay soon saw that sellers were listing and less and less. This can be contributed to the seller policy as well as the current world economic situation where both buyers and sellers are not as active as a year ago
