Get peoples feedback on whether or not they'd even buy your stuff. This could save you the hassle and potential disappointment of setting up a store and everything, then finding out that no one wants to buy them.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Dont overprice and give them to me for free :D

No, but seriously, take your time. 
Make them good quality.
Base them off stuff people are interested in right now. 
Make sure not to overprice them. Make a profit. 
And maybe make some promotions. 
I'd like to see your work though, just before you start trying to sell them. Just to make sure they are stuff people would buy.
I'm not an expert but the above stuff is pretty much the guidelines/]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Hey guys, I just wanted to ask a question.
Well, you see, I am starting to create custom minifigures and minifig gear, and I was going to sell them on Bricklink.com. I don't really know much about selling things online, and shipping and stuff, but is there anything I need to know about selling custom minifigs?]]></content>
