    I started with Amazon a few months ago after I won an auction for a bunch of used lcd monitors and server equipment. Getting started was easy. Create a sellers account, this a separate account just for selling. The link is listed on the right side of your account window "Sell your stuff". Then look up an item you have that you want to sell. There will be a link that says "Have one to sell?" click the button and it will take you to a page where you setup your specifics like price condition and quantity available. The only think I cannot figure out is how to adjust the shipping fee. Usually it is a set price that I assume is calculated by Amazon. It will let you know what others are selling there item for, which allows you be the lowest price, a good place to be when your new! I sold nearly 45 monitors in under 2 months using Amazon. Another perk is that you can buy shipping through Amazon when you sell an item, at a very good discount, with many many options. There is a lot more to know/learn about Amazon selling but that comes with trying it out and using the system. I feel there is a good audience for the goods you sell and the fees are lower it seems (no paypal!!). There is a delay in getting paid the first time, like a probation period, so only use service if your not desperate for the money. Overall I try to sell on amazon before going over to ebay with my items.

    Were there any links you came across that will help someone to navigate the selling process on Amazon? As in the pitfalls and the path to success.

    TIA
