We are told all the time to try again and maybe we will this fall. I buy lots of things off ebay stores and have never had a problem from the purchasing side.

One suggestion....whatever you decide to make and sell on ebay - I would spend some time watching similar items and what they are selling for. I found that there are several people that sell harness all the time (with leashes) for a buy now price of $9.99.....and I am not sure how they are making any money after all the ebay and paypal fees!!

Good luck in your ebay business!!
I'v always wondered about the fees. How much does ebay charge someone to sell something??? Is it based on the amount of the sale???
