Posted - Nov 23 2005 : 08:09:19 AM I think I will just stick to lising them as auctions!! I'm on vacation after today till Dec.5. So I am going to try to get alot done!! Thanks for ya'll's input!!
I had tried some other smaller sites but they just don't have the traffic that ebay does. Is there any other places that are good to but things on????

I had one open and sold a few things out of it but most of my stuff went by regular auctions. I think you'd be better off during your candles & melts on a fixed price auction or regular auction with buy it now. Then when you get a following built up, open the store. I agree with Diane about the scale. I just got one last year and it has saved me so many headaches when it came to answering questions. Not to mention the fact that I'm not "eating" postage costs because I didn't estimate correctly.

Posted - Nov 22 2005 : 8:52:45 PM I don't have a "store" but I do sell on ebay. I have had really good luck, and it does help lessen the clutter for sure.My only word of advice is purchase a digital postal scale and weight your items for postage before you post them. Other wise you will get peppered with "how much to ship" questions constantly. And buy a GOOD digital scale (preferably from the USPS) because the first one I bought was off and I lost money on shipping!If I can be of any more help just ask!
