Before you start
- An eBay seller account. If you have never sold on eBay, list one item on eBay yourself first: that is when eBay finishes your seller registration.
- Shipping, payment and return policies on eBay, or 10 minutes to create them with the business policies guide.
- A phone for photos, and a plain background in good light.
The five steps
Five steps, about 15 minutes in total. You can stop after any step and carry on later.

Finish your eBay setup
- What to do

Photograph your first item
