How do I decide what price to sell my work on eBay?
I design and create mosaic artwork and want to start selling on eBay. How does one find the right market to start out? I work from a studio in my home, but I don't have a clue where to start.

The best place to start is by looking at what others are doing with similar products on eBay. Then make a list of what you like and what you don't like about how their shops are set up, what their policies are, etc. Then formulate your own mini operations plan.
