store on Etsy and am pleasantly surprised at how well it's going. I've managed to sell quite a lot and there really are alot of customers there (at least in vintage), there's also a lot people who shop there from other countries, I've sent to Hong Kong and London so far and had inquiries from Australia and Italy. Now that I've got used to the site and procedures,I would say it's easier than Ebay. The one thing I don't like is that they don't offer a shipping calculator, so I have to price US shipping by using a faraway zip code (I use California) . So far, so good!
