Etsy or Ebay?

That is the next question on our minds. I had never heard of Etsy until a few weeks ago and now a lot of people have some good things to say about it. One person (Stacey Miller) said that Etsy is for artisans to get out there and Ebay is for sellers who sell stuff. I am paraphrasing of course.

I think I'm going to work it this way, post one item at ebay, list it for a penny and see how it does. Then I think I'll post another item for a penny at Etsy. Of course if they SELL for that penny I'll be horribly upset, but thems the chances one takes when one is experimenting.

I am hoping people will keep on telling me about their experiences with both or either. Will definitely help with the research input.

Leanne and I have been working on Jewelry for Halloween. She's been doing the earrings and I've been doing the necklaces. However, unless I can figure out my website making program (using web expressions 3) and why some things aren't uploading at all, NOTHING is going to go up.

This is driving me insane. The code is exactly the same for all pictures (I triple checked, letter by letter, symbol by symbol) and yet, some just wont upload. sigh.

Speaking of which, I'm headed back to the program to try it again. sigh
