11. I've been selling on ebay since the late 1990's off and on.

Recently, I decided I'd also sell on etsy so I set up an account and put something on. It was all very confusing and there was no way to tell if anyone had bothered to look at the item. It took a couple of days before the item would even appear in a search. I finally said to heck with it and decided to stick with ebay. I guess it's more of a pain to get established there now, but once you are it's pretty simple. If you don't want the hassle, there are people around who will sell things on ebay for you for a fee.
