Here is an example item selling page.  With FreeForm and EAPH hosting you are not chained to any particular ecommerce website package. As a result you can do virtually anything you desire throughout your site, and especially on the selling page, you have the opportunity to really make your items shine.  Here I've done just as I would on eBay:  Show lots of good sized photos and include as much textual description as needed to fully and accurately portray the item for sale.

The difference between selling on eBay vs. at your own site is that you need to provide for the purchasing transaction yourself.  What I suggest is to start the selling page with a ''purchase box'' similar as I have above.  I used a Gallery Input Area in FreeForm followed immediately by a Text Input Area assigned the same background and pixel width so they flow together.  The rest of the page is basically the same as you would use for eBay.

Note:  I chose for this sample site to show how you might create category and sub category pages leading to individual item selling pages.  At any point along that path you have the option to cut to the chase and instead provide buy now or add to cart buttons.  It all depends on how many items you have to sell and the amount of effort that you can or should expend to present them.  In some cases it might even make sense to sell right from the home page.

This is a colorful, detailed, and fun figurine!
This happy cat has it all figured out!

About Boyds Bear Purrstones
Boyds Bear Purrstones are delightfully fun and detailed resin cast figurines featuring nylon wiskers protruding from cute cat faces.

It's not easy to find information about the Purrstone Collection or even about ''The Boyds Collection LTD''.  Apparently the original company, Boyds Bears, allowed a third party to manufacture the Purrstone Collection under a licensing agreement.  Each piece is numbered which may be significant (some day) to verify authenticity and seems to indicate that their numbers are limited.  

Regardless of their potential investment value as collector items, Boyds Bears & Friends THE PURRSTONE COLLECTION is a must have for cat lovers.
