Mountain Dale Post Office Hosts eBay Seminars at the Mountain Dale Fire House

Mountain Dale, N.Y. — Mountain Dale Post Office will host free seminars on how to sell items on eBay. “eBay is great for small businesses or for the homeowner who simply wants to make extra money on items no longer used.

Interested persons can learn how to:

  • photograph and download pictures online
  • write effective descriptions of merchandise
  • post items on eBay
  • set attractive starting bid prices
  • use the “Buy It Now” option
  • sell items on eBay
  • ship items without leaving home

The eBay seminars will be conducted at Mountain Dale Fire House, 132 Main St., Mountain Dale, NY 12763. Refreshments will be served. After registration admission is free. For further information and to reserve a seat, call 845 434-5810.
