You can advertise your goods in the "Marketplace - Goods" section here in the forum but you need escrow.

There are escrow service adverts on "Marketplace - Service" or "Marketplace - Service Announcements" sections Grin

There are many exchangers on here that can buy paypal with bitcoin. They are in the currency exchange but you should try to trade more or rank your account up because you won't get any trades while you are a newbie due to chargeback risks unless you can prove that you are trusted.

I heard Alibaba.com,the largest Chinese online market,has started accepting bitcoin.Yet to verify it myself.But if it is true,You can try it as they also ship all over the world

I've not heard that this is the case, never know though.

You can make your own site and accept bitcoin or if you are no good at making stores get a shopify site and they have a bitcoin accepting option via coinbase.  They also have apps for digital good sales.

Yep, Bitify and Openbazaar are currently the only ones that fits. There is also nxt.org but they only allow digitized goods. So for now your best bet would be those two. Oh and there is syscoin, though I haven't really checked out that site.

Have you tried Bitify? That place sure needs sellers that aren't mostly involved with digital goods.

You should open up an account there.

Well, what I sell on ebay I want to keep selling on eBay. They have a certain large clientele for what I sell, I am able to successfully turn my every $2.99-$5.99 initial investment and sell that item (Depending on item variation and if its a Single or Set) for a consistent $64-$100, Which I do with about 10 sets every two weeks. But I have some random odds and ends items I would like to turn into bitcoin.

How does selling on here work? A 3rd party escrow + a trust rating? and anyone can sell on there?
quoted from their site
Quote
If you both agree to a price, the client creates a contract between you both with your digital signatures, and sends it to a third party called a moderator. These moderators are also folks on the OpenBazaar network—could be your neighbor or someone across the world—who the buyer and seller trust in case something goes wrong.
you need to find the 3rd party yourself and will be called moderator,and make sure both you and your client trust the person and make a deal to make him to be your 3rd party
here's infographic but not about how the 3rd party works

openbazaar is the obvious one, but it's still very early days and i've no idea how many users it has. you can also sell goods on here but it'll be hard to sell consistently.

as for taking payment in fiat and receiving bitcoin, none of the big bitcoin payment processors do that and it would be very tough to find a reputable one who does, if there are any at all. that opens up a whole world of fraud that paypal and card processors wouldn't wanna touch.

Hello everyone. I currently sell on eBay and receive paypal as my checkout method. I am looking for a website selling service for legal goods, mostly random common items, but I'm wanting to start receiving bitcoin as payment directly. I can only find minimal results and I am not informed on these results so I wanted to ask a community of users, what websites like this do you have in mind or suggest?

I also have a 2nd part to this question about if there are any checkout or payment methods that can take a non-bitcoin users PayPal or CC, or similar and easily for the purchaser of course, automatically convert it into bitcoin ?
