Some merchants do all their selling through eBay. They may maintain a web site, but they use the eBay e-commerce tools to manage actual transactions. eBay provides a tool called the eBay Merchant Kit to help you place information about your current auctions inside your web site (see Figure 29-3). Of course, there are certain rules. For instance, if you want to use the Merchant Kit, you can’t display other, non-eBay products on the same page. It’s very simple to use; eBay provides a web-based “wizard” to configure the products you’ll show on your site. The wizard then provides a little piece of HTML that you drop into a web page on your site, something like this: You can literally create this code snippet and get it into a page on your site in a minute or two.
