There are some things (like firearms and live pets) that you cannot sell on eBay, but handcrafted purses would be okay. You don't need a license, but I would set up a paypal account to make it easier on your buyers to pay for the products. A lot of people don't like mailing in money orders.
The key to success on eBay is your photo and write-up. A (GOOD) picture is truly worth a thousand words! So you will definitely need a really good digital camera.
Pricing will also be a factor. Check similar products on eBay to see what your competition is selling theirs for....try to go a little lower. Another important factor will be shipping cost. DO NOT overcharge. Package your purse up, weigh it and only charge actual cost + maybe a little extra for "handling".

Yes! You do not need a license to sell anything on eBay. If you're planning to make this a significant source of income, however, your city/state regulations might technically require you to have a business license, but I doubt that anyone has ever gotten one to sell crafts. (People who sell retail items through eBay might obtain licenses just so they can buy items in bulk and be exempt from paying sales tax).
Another venue you might consider for selling your items is etsy.com, an online marketplace devoted to crafters.

Of course, you can sell on eBay almost anything. Go to Ebay and search, you will find the craziest things. The thing is if what you are selling attracts buyers.

I know someone who sells on eBay , but by the time eBay,gets there cut , and pay pal (owned by eBay) gets theirs and the shipping ,and handling is allowed for , out of 1000.00 per month sales they actually keep around $450.00 and don't forget to keep track of earnings because it is,and has to be reported to the IRS , they are actually giving up , eBay stores are slowly fading due to eBay's new pet project

Homemade textile items are to have a tag inside that tell where in the world it was made and by whom. Ex: Made with love in the USA by Lily. I believe they are allowed to be sold over the internet under the flea market laws. Mass production definetly has different laws that are far more binding.
