Bonanza!!
So there's this website called Bonanza, which used to be called Bonanzle, and on which we sell things (in addition to eBay, Etsy, and our own website). I think of Bonanza (I really wish it was still called Bonanzle; it's much more fun to say!) as kind of the offspring of eBay and Etsy.
They tend to have more funky, one-of-a-kind items, but that aren't necessarily vintage or handmade or a craft supply, like items must be on Etsy. I've heard many people complain that eBay is not as friendly toward the casual seller as they were when they started, so I think Bonanzle provides a more comfortable venue for those sellers.
On eBay, our website, and Bonanza we sell all of our items (fabric,hardware, apparel, etc.), and on Etsy we only sell fabric and things we've made out of fabric.
Bonanza also has something called a"Hand-Picked List" where users get to create a collection of items a similar theme. Lots of people do their themes by color, and I often do mine by motif. If you have enough items in your list and enough users visit it, it can be featured on the homepage! Here's what that looks like:
You can only post one of your own items on your List, but its a good way to help other people get their items shown. I've never had any of my lists featured on the homepage, but I'm working on it!
Bonanzle is definitely one of those things where the more you participate in the community activities they offer, the more you sell (Etsy is similar in that way).
Check it out!
Oh yeah, and here are links to my active Hand-Picked Lists, which are only slightly embarrassing to share with you.
