Question

This is my first time selling something on Ebay and I want to get everything right.What do I need? Can a 17 yr old sell on Ebay?

Answer 1

Paypal is like a bank account.Paypal is easy to set up.  It is easiest to have a bank account from which Paypal can pay your proceeds and you can pay for your shipping charges.  It also allows you to accept credit card payments from buyers.  

You set up the Paypal acct, be sure it is verified working.

You list your item, be sure to select Paypal as one (or only) of your buyer's payment choices.  Wait for the end of auction and if your buyer selects Paypal for payment, you should receive an email from Paypal that you have received the money.  From Paypal (or a link through ebay) you can print a shipping label and have the money deducted from your Paypal proceeds.

Be sure you read about the ebay and Paypal fees. Know how much it costs to ship an item, by putting it in a box with packing material, weight it and go to usps.com for postage calculations.

If you are new to ebay, try selling one item and see how it goes.  

I dont know if ebay asks your birthdate.

Answer 2

h**l, I did this when I was 15.

First, make sure you have something that is in great demand, such as Euro banknotes or gold and silver coins.

Second, you don't need a paypal account. All you really need is a bank account so you can accept personal checks or money orders.

But be careful: some buyers would not bid because you don't accept paypal, and

Make sure the checks don't bounce (the account has no balance) so make sure you wait at least 7 days for the deposited amount to show up in your bank account.

But if you use eBay and paypal... get a credit card ready and lie about your age (make it 10 yrs older). There will be fees, but at least you'll be selling something.

Answer 4

Well i have never sold anything on ebay but your question is how do i get a paypal account..

First of all go to www.paypal.com and register

they will sen take an ammount of cash from your bank account (you get it back its around 2.50 thats all)

with the ammount they take will be a 5 digit security code enter that into your account page and your account is now verified and active

If you want to be able to add funds via direct debit and take away funds you will have to have anothr random ammount (under 1$ taken out this is all automatic)

then do the same enter the ammount they tok out and ta da your account is good to go ;)

You don't need anything as long as you got your card after 2005. Yes, I'm pretty sure you can.
