1) Gather Rep As a Buyer
Reputation is everything here, many functions are accessible only to those with the right rep #s. Selling used to be like this and it still is in reality since it's impossible to get your item seen without a rep.

Unless you already have a customer base from another site the best way to get a rep is offering free items - sucks for most items - or as a buyer.

No one knows what you buy but everyone knows how much you approximately spend or if you have been disputing a lot of purchases. If you have more than 4 purchases you're a vet but even 1 or 2 looks a lot better than n0ob.


2) Get a Payment/Escrow Processor - SETTINGS page
If you already have a credit card payment processor like paypal you can use it on your little biggy page. If you are using bitcoins you need an escrow provider. Unless you already use an escrow system with an api the easiest way is transaxe, you're done in 2 minutes.


3) Post Item
Take your time and make something as awesome as possible, good pics and descriptions help get views and this seems to get even more of them.


4) First Sales
If you can get established buyers from the start you're really in good shape, do a killer job with them and everyone else and you're done with this guide. That's not so easy but if you bring in buyers from outside it works too. Be careful with bs accounts, if your buyers never do anything else on little biggy you're going to get screwed.
