This subject probably already has been addressed, but I was just curious.
A friend told me about a site called Etsy. She sells vintage jewelry on it and does quite well. Has anyone tried it and if so what do you think?
It would be nice to have another venue in addition to Ebay. They don't do auctions, just "buy it now" type listings.

Etsy started for artists/artisans and has evolved to include vintage items as well. Great site. I have friends who sell paintings and prints on Etsy. They do sell, but I am not certain just how well.

I suggest to try it. If you already have everything set up in eBay, it would be easy to copy/paste everything into etsy.

No way to know until you give it a shot.

Thanks for the info. Can I use the same Paypal account I use for Ebay, or would that be a problem?

shouldn't be a problem at all. i use my paypal account for just about everything online. for accounting, it is better to have everything go into one account. easier to manage. you just have to stay on top of your orders.

Thanks Shag,
I will give it a try and see if I can sell something.
