Who is using eBay/PayPal these days?

[Skinny Shooter]

After reading recent threads about eBay, was wondering how many of you buy and/or sell on eBay?
Have you learned any "tricks" to getting your item(s) to sell?

I've thought about selling some of my ironwork there but was concerned that I wouldn't get at least what each item is worth.

Saw their info about an eBay store but am not sure how that would conflict/assist with a standard website.

Also opened a PayPal acct to simplify funds transfers. To protect ourselves, we opened a bank acct that is used specifically for eBay/PayPal transactions. It should isolate our regular account from any fraudulent mischief.
