I've been a store owner for a year now and have done purchases myself. Love that setting up items in my shop are free. They do charge $2 or 10% commission if customers order through the market place but if you don't want that, you can always turn it off and use the custom storefront which means its completely free to run a store, besides the $0.30+ 2.8% that PayPal and Stripe charge for transactions. I don't make many sales of the marketplace but I don't mind. We all know in order to make sales in a business, you must advertise so I dont expect to make money off just having a store set up.
I always reply to my customers asap as other owners reply to me asap when I have a question. I cannot think of a better website for my little shop than storenvy

When selling on eBay, the fees tend to be a hassle and with so many competitive prices, you usually don't make much money but as a buyer, it's the best! You just need to know how to actually use it. If an item (for example jewelry) is way too cheap for the type of gem its claiming, its probably a scam and this is true for anywhere. Always make sure you look at the person you are buying from. Check their rating percentage and their reviews as sellers. Shipping is fast if I buy from my country or its slow but very, very cheap
I've been using eBay for years and have only had 1, bad experience which was my first purchase. It only happened because I didn't know how to use it and didn't check the seller. I reported to eBay and got my money back very quickly. Love this site
