This Kit consists of instructions on how to sell an item on eBay, set up a PayPal account and use Click & Ship. This kit should be an educational tool to help the internet novice get started on eBay, and guide them through shipping their products.

For many consumers this is a new experience so this kit is a tool to help the internet novices get started and ultimately ship their products with Click & Ship.
