Advice on Ebaying some parts...

[Monte_SS]

Ok, I need some advice and or some good tips on how to successfully use ebay to sell some parts.

I am getting laid off from my job at the end of March. I have a friend at work that has amassed lots of parts over the past 20 or so years and wants me to sell some on ebay for him and he will give me a set percentage. I have never sold anything on ebay, in fact I have only purchased one item from there and it was several years ago. I am just looking for some knowledgeable people to maybe give me some advice on the best way to do these things to avoid as many issues that newbies would normally make. Things like the best payment methods, how to avoid scams, best way to set shipping prices etc. Anything along those lines as it seems that I may be very busy trying to clear out a few busses full of stuff. Thanks in advance to any and all that give advice. Gonna be a long summer it appears.

Thanks,
