Your mom will sign up for you. Your first stop should be eBay's Guide to Seller Services pages ... eBay's Seller Central has all the resources you need to learn about the basics of selling on eBay pages ... The key to a successful eBay selling is simple -- Sell products that people actually want. Selling on eBay is not as easy as some portray. In fact, go to eBay and check out the number of auctions that end without a single bid. Competition is getting tough, as more sellers go to eBay; even the big boys are joining in the eBay marketplace. Add to that the increasing listing and final value fees. eBay has several ways for you to determine exactly what the hot items to sell on their marketplace: Items In Demand = the most popular items currently within that particular category. To see the In Demand page, go to pages ... Hot Items by Category Report = a monthly report that lists the fastest growing categories on eBay for the previous month. Go to pages ... and select "Hot Items by Category" from the menu on the left. eBay Pulse = "a daily snapshot of current trends, hot picks, and cool stuff on eBay". Go to pulse ... to see eBay Pulse in action. Merchandising Calendar = eBay promotes specific categories on its home page each month. Savvy eBayers know that this home page exposure results in more interest in such categories. Go to pages ... to view the current Merchandising Calendar.

it depends on what you are trying to sell. Ebay is basically an online auction, you post whatever you want to sell, and if it's good people bid on it. the highest bidder recieves the item. To answer the question about how you get the money.. I'm pretty sure that the safest way is to use PayPal. The money from the person's credit card is wired into your account. If you are really desperate buy "ebay for Dummies" I think you can buy it on Amazon. Hope I helped!
