VGCC Offers new eBay Class at South Campus

As more and more people buy and sell items over the Internet through the eBay service (www.ebay.com), Vance-Granville Community College helps local residents do so successfully, through a popular new course. “Buying and Selling on eBay” will be offered on the college’s South Campus in Granville County as a night class from 6 to 10 p.m., beginning Wednesday, Oct. 4.

Classes will be held in Room 133 on South Campus, located on N.C. 56 between Creedmoor and Butner, on Wednesday evenings through Nov. 8.

In this course, students will register on eBay in order to learn the process of buying or selling items through an online auction. Each student will be encouraged to bring something to class that he or she would like to sell. During the six-week course, participants will price their items, write effective descriptions, add pictures, and then follow the progress of their auctions. Prior to the end of the class, students will go through procedures necessary to complete the sale including: the receipt of payment, packaging and shipping, and receiving buyer feedback.

The cost of the course is $55, plus a $3 technology fee. For more information and to register, call VGCC South Campus at (919) 528-4737
