Hello,

I would like to make a simple website with pictures of small items I will have to sell, without saying what I have, others sell similar things on redbubble/etsy and I could go do it there but that goes against what I think.
 I will have things for people that like crypto and therefore want to sell for crypto - peer to peer.

So I think simple low cost website - wix/wordpress? might not allow me to sell things for crypto, so better with low cost hosting that I can sort ok.

The site would  lists things for sale with photo/price in fiat (USD etc) and item code. Various crypto wallet addresses listed on the site. If you want to buy something you make transaction to chosen wallet and email your contact details, item code, quantity and transaction info and item gets sent out. Including worldwide shipping, one item would be less than $5.

Concern present; people think it's a scam, orders could get confusing, it could be to complicated for the avg person used to trusted sites (will they know how to get txt id?)

I would like to know what you think. Is it better just to use a crypto merchant or pay by coinbase/paypal? haha I hope that isn't the better option!

Thank you Cheesy

Can you spend $10 for hosting? with $10 you probably can easily setup a wordpress store with all crypto payment plugins. take a look at namecheap's shared hosting[1] or wordpress hosting[2].

if to avoid expensive transaction costs, crypto currency transactions can be superior ,, fast and low cost transaction becomes an option to start this business, it could be this will beat all forms of transactions ,, safe and reliable ,, but keep in mind .. we must remain vigilant in running the trade with crypto currency ,, the calculation must be right so that no party is in disadvantage
