First of all, to get started you need a mailing address such as your house or apartment address. I'm assuming you already have a house or apartment where you can receive your packages, but if for some reason you don't, you will need to get a post office box at a Mail Boxes Etc. or related service. Some of your packages may require a signature upon delivery and they will sign on your behalf.
Second, you need an email address. I suggest setting up a second email account for business use. Your second email should be professional sounding; for example, something like "starsfan6969@yahoo.co.uk" wouldn't cut it. I would recommend the initial of your first name followed by your last name. If your name was John Smith, then "jsmith@yahoo.co.uk" would be great.
A few good locations to get free email I have listed below. I would not suggest getting an email at Hotmail or Yahoo considering literally any username you can think of is taken and they are well-known for being used to spam.
Free Email Services:
www.yahoo.co.uk
www.hotmail.co.uk
I also recommend using a good email program such as Microsoft Outlook Express which comes free with Internet Explorer. If you are using an online web browser such as the one provided by Hotmail, you will not be able to keep up with the volume or be able to organize your email adequately with the traffic you get if you decide to sell your merchandise. You can download the latest version of Internet Explorer at the Microsoft website. http://www.microsoft.com
