Oh my goodness, I started a store!

First time ever, I swear.

It's nothing fancy, but then, neither am I.

I put up a Famicom Disk Drive cart/attachment without the drive, SAT Magic Carpet, 2600 Basic Math gatefold complete, TI99 Picnic Paranoia, and a bunch more. More to come.

ecrater is free and pretty basic, but it's a start. Better than paying $20 a month.

Nice setup you got there!! Congrats on starting your online store!

Looks good so far :)

Looks pretty good! My only advice would be to use better pictures. When your pictures are sideways or you can see the carpet underneath, it looks kind of amateurish.

I've got it bookmarked, can't wait to see more inventory fill up!

I agree. Even something as simple as putting them on top of a plain sheet of paper gives it a better look.
I like what I see so far though. Good jeeyorb! (http://www.homestarrunner.com/cantsayjob.html)

It's alright so far. agree about the bette pictures thing. I'll be waiting for you to stock up on some items..

Thanks for the input. I haven't much of a photo studio, just the kitchen counter. I angle the shots so that I can avoid the glare of the overhead lighting and flash. I hope that a sort of amateurish quality of the pictures with a background (rather than a perfect photoshop manicure) may help all customers realized that it is 'actual item pictured' rather than some stock photo- you'll know what you're getting.

Currently, my idea of a 'store' is a box of stuff and a free website. I'll work on making it a bit more sophisticated. If you can believe it, I have no printer paper, since I have no printer- it's in storage. I decided to start a store while life is on hold (moving around, in between jobs, etc.) Just like my 2000 item store stock is still in storage. Anyone remember my old tradelist. It was bigger than your collection.

When I get my all in one hp thing out, I'll have to figure out how to make quick scans, which will result in better images. Otherwise, it's just the digital camera and me.

Thanks again for the input.
