Register with PayPal. Once you are completely registered, you are ready to recieve payments. Sign on to PayPal and go to the Merchant Tools. There should be plenty of things in this section to help you.
If you are looking to create a site on GeoCities using PayPal, then you could add "BUY NOW" buttons to your GeoCities page. In PayPal, under Merchant Tools, there should be a BUY NOW BUTTON link near the bottom of the page - Click this link. Then click the START NOW link in the left column. Now you will be on a page that asks you to customize your button, the products, and prices. Once you are done, click OK and it will give you the code to add to your GeoCities page. Now, just go to your GeoCities page and add the code.

I don't think you can do this with a free site like geocities. A shopping cart system requires server side scripting, and geocities has very anoying ads that drive people away. You'll probably have to spend money.
However, you might want to check out cafepress . They have a selection of products that you can customize and mark up including tshirts, mouse pads, and even publishing your own books. They take care of all the technical stuff and producing the products, all you do is supply the art. Of course, they take a lot of money per product. If you are selling your own products, there are probably services out there, besides ebay, that you can use. I don't know what they are, but I'm sure that they'll all want to make money.

No worries anymore when it comes to building a fully functional, up and running website for FREE!
Microsoft (free domain and hosting for life) ,
Google (Googlepages, Blogger) ,
Yahoo (Geocities),
Freewebs are some of the companies offering free websites with design tools .
A list of free websites with features and links is available at-

Your definitly on the right page you will just need someone to do a website for you or help you paster the paypal codes into your grocities page and then you have to promote your website that your items are on
http://www.addme.com
http://www.craigslist.org
and place that let you advertise for free.
Although there are free hosting companies online such as http://www.explicit-hosting.com
http://www.angelfire.lycos.com/
http://www.geocities.com
http://www.doteasy.com
It is better to have you site proffessionally done and if you cant afford it now at least get your domain name reserved you can get it for $8-10 and yahoo always has small buisness specials for around $3.00 you dont want to not have a domain name if you dont have a credit card you can get a prapid one andload your money on it to pay for the things you will nedd online for your website http://www.netspend.com and look up the local locations for your area
if you need help please feel free to email me i will be glad to give you some tips and info for a small donation or if you need your site done I can always help you with that too.take care hope this is helpful

I don't know why you don;t want to use ebay, you have probably the biggest audience on offer, and the use of their search facility if you do - therefore the best chance of selling your stuff. If you don't want to auction you can sell using "buy it now" and put the price you want. You should really consider it.
