Question
i guess my question is how to use ebay?
i want to sell using ebay
i know that ebay account has to be created, which i have done.
i also have to create sellers account if i want to sell anything, which i also have created by providing credit card number and check routing and account number.
so can i start selling now, or do i need to create paypal account.
i would appreciate any help
thank you

Answer
Yes, you can start selling now.  Paypal is a way to receive payments, which you may want to get, but it's not fundamental to selling.  

I suggest you go to the Ebay site map and read every link in the left hand column. yeah, theres a lot there, but that's because there's a lot there.

Good luck and feel free to come ask more questions as your selling experience grows.

Expertise

I`ve been involved with Ebay practically since it`s inception. I`ve spent a lot of free time in helping people find the answer to problems as well as selling techniquest on the Ebay system. I`m more than comfortable with the Ebay system, it`s rules and policies and the why`s and wherefores of it`s day to day operation and the operations of both a seller and buyer.

Experience

Been a consistent seller on Ebay since 1997 and have been regarded as a 'source' for information on Ebay itself.
(Under Expertiese, it should be techniques, not techniquest...sorry bout that....)
