RE: selling bows on ebay
I sell all my old bows on Ebay is they don't sell here. I do not accept Paypal due to all of the hassles associated with it and the many horror stories I have heard about the company.
I only accept money orders or a cashiers check. It makes it simple and I save money by not having to pay fees associated with Paypal. Sure it takes a little longer to get the money but I am never in a big hurry any way. It's not like they are going to run out of new bows.
For boxes just get one from a pro shop or other bow retailer. I know our store can throw out 10 - 50 boxes a day depending on the season.
Save money by shipping straight from the post office. Those mailing stores charge an arm and a leg to ship something for you. Shipping a bow in a cardboard bow box should only cost you about $12 priority mail (2 days)... yes it is actually cheaper to use priority mail than standard parce post when shipping large boxes like this.
