How else do people use PP besides Ebay?
 

My wife has made some custom sewn items for years, which I have spread around on Ebay over multiple accounts, so people who have in the past stolen her ideas don't just watch what she sells and copy the new items. It's worked great for years, but now with things changing, it's not going to be as simple any more.

How or where else do people use PP? Is there a way to have a website like cute-doll-dresses dotcom (not her site) and put a few different designs up for sale with a checkout button that takes you to PP? The clothes she sews are so custom that people who find them or are taken to them on Ebay (and now her website, hopefully) usually buy them because they're available and for sale, it's less about the price or comparing to other sellers.

I have limited experience online outside of Fleabay, is there a site or service that I could either use to set something like that up, or is there an obvious choice?

I just want to have a site/page where someone who asks about them can be pointed to where they can pick what they want and check out through Paypal.

Any help would be appreciated, I'm sure for some people here it's a dumb question, but I'm new to all of this and any solution I find with Google is just a page selling a service, and on here I can trust the advice so much more.

Thanks in advance!

If you are asking is there other outlets or platforms to sell on, the answer is yes. You can create your own web site and have it setup to take PP. It is a little challenging, however. But you may find that Etsy.com is a better place than eBay for your wife's handy work. Etsy crates to hand-make items. Hope this helps.

Thanks! What I'm looking for is a site that accepts payments by Paypal the way Fleabay used to till recently; or a way to do that on my own website.

I believe AMZN also have a handmade section,but no Paypal.
if you have your own website,it will be a lot of work driving traffic,may as well try Etsy for handmade goods,,
