Wonder if you have visited
I used to be a regular seller (and buyer) on eBay, but have been looking for alternatives after Paypal blocked all accounts of sellers from the Middle East, post 9/11.
UAE now has a parallel, Souq, a much smaller one - no doubt.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that the online shopping trend is catching up in UAE. I have sold quite a few items in just about 2 months and have been getting quite a few repeat customers.
The best part is that if you have something to sell, you just put it up free of charge! You pay 5% to Souq only if your items sells!! Meaning, it is a win-win for everyone.
