What Does Ebay have to Offer Belly Dancers?

Ebay can be an incredibly useful tool for finding unusual items. Not every town or city sells Belly Dancing clothes, jewelry, dvds and books, but on ebay you can find it all, and often at bargain prices.

I have created a website that enables you to see many of the current items that have been listed under the title Belly Dance, as well as giving you a search box so you can add your own search terms (for example, if you want to look under veils, or zills, or ethnic jewelry...).

The website is http://www.homepursuits.com

It updates automatically, so keep heading back there even if you don't see what you want first time.

Also on the site there are links to articles about buying and selling on ebay. If you don't see one you like, just refresh the page and it will offer you some different articles. These will give you loads of information about making your ebay experience successful and pleasurable.

And finally, if you have gone past recreational selling and are serious about creating a business on ebay (maybe you make belly dancing costumes and need an outlet to sell them, or have your own instructional dvd for your classes and want a wider audience) then there are links to many tools that can help automate and improve your business.

I hope you will find this site useful. I love ebay and have been working through my house selling everything I haven't used in the last 2 years - you'll be surprised what people will buy!

Ever thought you were on your own?

I was just browsing one of the belly dancing newsgroups I am a member of (head over to google groups) and I read a great article about the International Festival of Belly Dance that was held in Salt Lake City in 2005. Approx. 10,000 people attended the festival, dance clinics all sold out, over 150 dancers wanted to participate and 30,000 dollars were donated to the free festival.

I think that shows just how many people love belly dancing and that there are loads of others out there who share your passion. So, if you are learning at home or in a small group, why not join a newsgroup and start communicating with belly dancers around the world.

And if you'd like to got to the 2006 festival, it's in August and you can learn more at http://www.kismetdance.com.
