Selling to the General Public?
« on: September 13, 2017, 04:25:27 PM »
I do not know if this is the right place this question, but I am perhaps the world's worst salesperson and I need to sell stuff to finance my hobby/addition. I thought about an ebay store but I doubt I will have over a hundred pieces to sell my entire lifetime as this is a hobby and not a business for me.
What options do I have?
I have stuff to sell or swap to members of the forum, but I do not care if I actually show a profit from any swap. However, if two rich outsiders want to bid against each other for a piece of mine listed on another venue that would be wonderful.
Is there a person who will sell my stuff for a comission or a place to sell on consignment?

Yes, I have thought of that I have relatives who are top rated sellers, but they sell antiques and were bot interested in selling jewelry (even with a healthy commission) I guess I will start contacting pawn shops to see if any around here have ebay stores. However, can one Search ebay for sellers, what do   You put in the search box?.
Is Tucson the only show, is there ever one in Dallas?
