It's pretty easy. I joined years ago, so I'm not sure if the process has changed. I'm sure it's just as easy.
You'll have to take pictures of items and write descriptions, and don't forget to figure out how much it will cost to mail before you list it. Buyers will pay the postage, but you have to tell them how much. If it goes Priority Mail, the ebay calculator will figure it for the buyer from the weight you put in.
It's free to join ebay, but you pay for listing items and then you pay a percentage of the sale to ebay. If you join Paypal - and I highly recommend it - you'll also pay a percentage of the total sale to them.
They kinda nickel & dime you, but I've made some surprising sales at times. It's a great way to reach a very large number of prospective buyers. Good luck and enjoy.

It doesn't cost to join, but it costs a little to sell. Just go through their help and look. Usually the seller makes the buyer pay the shipping costs. If you are determined enough, you can figure it all out by just reading through and following instructions.

Its easy. Even a computer ignorant like myself can do it. Just go to ebay and follow the instructions for setting up an account.
