Selling Directly From The Vintage Village

In addition to being able to add a live link to another venue like Etsy or RubyLane, and being able to add a Classified AD... you can also opt to sell directly from The Vintage Village by adding a live link to a Pay Pal check out page.

If you sell online you most likely already have a business or premiere account with Pay Pal. If not, signing up is easy.

• Once you have your Pay Pal business account, go to the tab that says Merchant Services.

• Go to the icon that says Buy Now Button
• Once there, you will see three STEPS to complete. This is a partial screen shot so you see you are in the right spot.
  

• Once the 3 STEPS are complete hit the CREATE BUTTON icon.
• You will now see two options for grabbing the code for that button.
• Choose the EMAIL option (right tab)
• Copy the code and paste that into the description box of the picture you are using to sell the item you created the button for.
• When a buyer clicks on the plain text html code you provided, it will take them to Pay Pal where they can securely sign into their account and immediately purchase the item from you.
• You will be sent a notification from Pay Pal that the item was purchased.
• After confirming this, return to The Vintage Village and either mark the item temporarily as SOLD in the title or delete it and replace it with another item for sale.
