There are so many online selling sites to sell stuff especially things like crafts, antiques and handmade items. Handmade crafts are usually in high demand, it is quite a niche market, and many online markets sell such handmade items.
I had many readers reach out to me to find about authentic places other than sites like Craigslist to sell handmade items.
Today, I am listing some good online selling sites where you can sell your crafts.
Etsy is the most well-known and popular marketplace for selling crafts online. It has a wide variety of handmade crafts listed. There are no fees to become a member of this marketplace, but Etsy does have listing fees and takes a percentage of your sale earnings.
Another super big marketplace which sells many things other than crafts or handmade items. eBay sells a lot of things. I have seen a good number of crafts listed here as well, so this can be a great option. There is insertion fees (you have some free insertions per month) and final value fees which depend on the amount of sale and postage.
iCraft is another marketplace where you can sell handmade items exclusively. They don’t accept anything other than handmade things. They have monthly fees to register on this marketplace. But there are no fees taken out from your sale earnings.
