1. Is it better/safer to sign up under an individual or business?

2. Is it better/safer to create an ebay store?

I think better to do it as an individual, because individual people make stupid mistakes and Ebay may be more forgiving...

Ebay raised their prices for their stores, and in my opinion the stores don't do anything. Most people go to Ebay for auctions...

The answer to question 1 is it is about the same. Rather you sign up as an individual or buisness.

The answer to qestion . It is better and safer to open up an ebay store. I say this by experience. Not only will you be able to list lots of items but you will have more traffic and the listing on stores is very cheap compare to auctions or buy now. You can make more and the extra monthly fee is worth it. I did this serveral times and it went pretty good. BUT... if you list many products with high value or if your sale maybe in the thousands in one time more likely your doomed very fast and dont matter if youre individual or store..So if you got lots of junk to get rid of.. go for the store...
