Etsy VS Ebay (selling comparisons)

(This is part of my Bearded Bunny Ball Blog project)

(originally posted in October 2007)


The Bunnies for Sale

I've listed 6 PAIRS of bunnies for sale ($8 each). Three were posted on ebay.com and 3 were posted on etsy.com. The goal is to track the progress and determine which is a better option to sell small art prints like this. The top three are Ebay, the bottom are Etsy. Read the rest of the blog to see actual posting costs for each.
