Default Can I sell anything on ebay?





Can I sell any item/product on ebay or are there restrictions? What about services can I use paypal to charge for that or does it have to be a tangible product?

There are definately products not allowed to sell on ebay and Jules provided a great list as a guideline. Some product/services are considered as "high risk" and therefore, you cannot sell on ebay or use paypal as payment. On another note I am sure you can slide some items in to sell and then you take chances on when Paypal realizes you are doing something they may not like and they have the perfect opportunity to SHUT YOU DOWN.
