Whats the best way to sell a small number handcrafted items?
Question by hazystitcher: Whats the best way to sell a small number handcrafted items?
I want to sell a small number of handcrafted items – handmade bags – and I’m trying to work out the best way to do it. My first choice would be Etsy.com but I don’t have a credit card and won’t be able to get one. I’d prefer not to sell on Ebay but would be willing to use it if I can’t find anything else. My own website seems overkill for a small number of items (though I plan to expand). I can’t afford my own ssl now, so if I want to do something on my own website it has to be something that doesn’t need to be secure. I plan to use paypal as a payment processor. I know I can use paypal to make ‘buy it now’ buttons but I would prefer something a bit more automated. Any advice would be appreciated!

A craft fair would be your best bet. There should be several coming up between now and Christmas. Check your local newspaper or community bulletin boards.
Hi, I want to recommend a online network site that is free to join. The address is http://www.ryze.com You can join as many network groups as you like and post ads for free. It is a great site to meet new people and a wealth of information and learning is there also. Good luck with your business. Terri T.
All the options you mentioned require credit cards. Pretty much every thing on the internet does. Get a bank account that has a visa check card. You can use that as a credit card. Then try ebay.
