INTERNET MARKETING

Hi there!

I need your help guys with some e-commerce questions...

Can anyone recommend me a good php script/platform that I can use to sell handmade postcards online? It should look like an album organized by categories with an option to buy.

Does it make sense to sell handmade postcards through eBay or rather through my own website?

Any other websites like eBay where I can sell them on?

Thank you

Big Cartel - Simple shopping cart for artists, designers, bands, record labels, jewelry, crafters

Ecommerce Software, Online Store Builder, Website Store Hosting Solution- Free 14 day Trial by Shopify.

You could easily use wordpress and paypal buttons if you wanted to start with a free option.

But with all of these you've got to bring in every single customer yourself...

Ebay is a pain for low price items - you lose a lot, but the market is huge and passing trade is big...so it's swings and roundabouts.

I think your biggest issue might be the low price making your margins tight, but good luck with it!
