1. eBay and PayPal can drive even decent, honest sellers to drink! There are a lot of rules and regulations, especially on eBay. My policy is to always obey eBay rules, but I have gotten occasional 'nastygrams' because I broke rules I didn't even know existed. With a Joint Venture, you can forget all that because you're selling with an established seller who is your JV partner. Therefore, you don't actually list on eBay at any time and it has no authority over you.

2. Sadly, there are sellers have risked their mortgage money to buy products to sell on eBay. Because they often don't understand even the most basic research, and plunge ahead based on feelings, they've lose their investment. They are the kind you meet at a party who sourly insist that "eBay doesn't work". An eBay Joint Venture, however, costs only a few hours of time.

3. With 'traditional' eBay selling, you must choose one of these options:

* Post an auction listing
* Create a Buy It Now
* Invest in your own eBay store

However, with a joint venture you don't have to do any of those things. You don't ever have to list on eBay, in fact. That's an enormous time and money saver!
