eBay Alternative: Shopify
I have been testing a Shopify store for a couple of weeks now and I am impressed. Shopify is an easy to use hosted ecommerce storefront that charges a 3% commission only when an item sells.

Here is a link to my store:

FreeBubba.com - FreeBubba has been our eBay and web site name for the last 4 years and I am in the slow process of changing it over to niche DVD's, CD's, Audio Books and Software.

Here is what TechCrunch has to say about Shopify:

Ottawa-based Shopify launched a lot later than originally promised (last fall), but it was worth the wait. They’ve launched a private beta and plan to open their doors permanently in May.

Shopify is a hosted ecommerce solution with integrated payments. People who sell stuff online, or want to, are going to like it. You can set up a store in moments, add items to sell, upload images, add tags and group items, and integrate paypal or a credit card processor for payments. Reporting is excellent, and they’ve even thought to include a RSS feed of recent orders to keep track of sales.

See here for more details on features. In general, sellers will be able to create a very professional multi-page website with little or no programming skills in just a few minutes.

I've been using Shopify for about 2 months and, like you, I'm totally blown away.

The back-end is so easy to use that it took minutes to set up the shop.

But the real power is how quickly I can change things.

I have been making graadual improvements to the shop, something which in any other eccommercec software would be a real pain but in Shopify is easy as anything.

I just found out about Shopify a few days ago, and I'm pleasently surprised at how easy it is. I've had an eBay store for over a year now, and have been selling on eBay for over six, and quite frankly I'm tired of giving them all my profits. Shopify is a life saver!

I was once an ebay user. But the experiences were so bad that I ended up leaving. This wasn't enough however! I made a project to challenge them.

Any feedback is welcome, as I am always looking for ways to improve the service.

Please visit it, if only to see what else is out there.

And, you will not find any ebay ads there :)
