A lot of people have had arguments and issues with eBay, but it tends
to be those who are moving into eBay stores, high-volume sales, and so
on.
However, eBay is an excellent real-world place to learn the basics of
business. It helps you understand how to display your jewelry, what to
say about it, how to make YOUR product more appealing. It offers a
turnkey cash register, where you don`t have to know all that much to
get started.
You can learn how to handle shipping, returns, your policies, and how
to deal with customers. In other words, it gives you the opportunity to
take baby steps, sell 1 piece of jewelry if you want, and see what
you`ll need to know more about.
eBay shoppers aren`t necessarily the same as ALL shoppers. They tend to
be looking for deals, the cheapest possible price, and so forth. But
again, for someone who`s never tried to run any kind of business,
there are all the basic concepts, right there.
The only other way to get that kind of experience, would be maybe to
work in a retail store like Penney`s, Wal-Mart, or another big chain.
But that means daycare, transportation, an employer, wages, and
schedules. :-)
