Answer 1

David, I can't help you much but try the UK small business link at http://www.businesslink.gov.uk.  Regardless of your location, research your target market and local laws first, then work on a business plan that includes how you want to procure and distribute your merchandise.

Answer 2

You may want to skip eBay and open your own business with your own website.  If you have storage space for your wares, you can start tomorrow.  godaddy.com (not my website) sets up your site.
