How to start up?

Hello all,

How should I go about starting a store/sales operation on eBay? I have an account and I have shopped on eBay quite a lot. I already have old goods that I can put up for auction/sale and I would like to get it going before I get my first unit.

Thanks!

Dominic

Two thoughts:

1) Wouldn't eBay (or eBay forums) be the place to find out about this?

2) Over the last 8 years, I couldn't find a reason to open an eBay store. Didn't seem cost effective to me.
