    I'm still pretty new to this, I'm starting to find a few good sources, however with all the competition on e-bay, I'm thinking about setting up an online storefront instead.

    Does anyone know a good, low priced place to set up an online store, that includes a shopping cart and doesn't require too much html knowledge? (sort of like the yahoo stores, but they charge $39.99).

    Here's how you do it:

    1) Buy a domain name for about $10/year.

    2) Find a hosting company that can give you more than 250MB space and 2GB transfer for under $5/month, make sure their sever support PHP & MySQL. Ask them how to setup the naming server for your domain, they'll help you.

    3) Go to: http://www.zencart.com/
    Download their free shopping cart. It's free and the good thing is they have a support forum where you can almost always get answer to your questions.

    4) Follow the installation guide and install zencart to your web server.

    Now you have a nice online shopping cart for under $6/month, nice?

    Carl, I own a web hosting and design company. We can configure your shopping cart for you, add the inital 100 products (as long as you have the typed up descriptions and necessary pictures), teach you the basics of ecommerce/online marketing and help you add future products to your site until you get the hang of it. Our price is $225 and we can host your site for as little as $10/mo. If you're interested in this deal please get in touch with me. My email is rjchamberlain85@comcast.net.

    By the way, if you have a lot of return customers and a lot of word of mouth customers, having your own shopping cart is a great way to avoid future ebay fees for your return clients and it also gives you a professional edge. We can also design pdf fliers and business cards to help you promote your site.
