Does anyone know if there's still a store in Aberdeen center who sells your things for you on EBay? Any info on the store or your experience with it will be helpful. Thanks!

It's not that hard to take pictures, my getto setup include:

- white cardboard for background (use Large FedEx boxes)
- tripod for camera
- a lot of lights, preferably artificial, right above the item so it does not cast shadows
- a camera

The reason why I use FedEx box is that it's free, and it can also be used as a reflectors because they are glossy white.

eBay and PayPal makes a lot of money out from an auction, they ding about 15% on the final price for fees. If you let someone else to do it, they could be charging you quite a bit too, so you might as well give the item out for free.

Thanks for the info!
I just don't want to do it myself coz don't want to bother with taking photos, writing description, figuring out the shipping cost, packaging, mailing, answering emails, etc.

That's correct, all my listings started at $0.99, so I don't pay any insertion fees.
