Can anyone help me please? Is it possible to sell one or two products from a website using a Paypal account, but without having a specific e-shop, which are expensive to run? What's the best way of doing this please? Any thoughts or advice greatly appreciated.

    What 'website'?

    Yes, you don't need any 'e-shop' to sell on ebay and get paid to your Paypal account.

    If you mean selling privately, then yes, the buyer can send you money by Paypal if s/he has an account.

    Yes it's easy enough to do that. The buyer doesn't need a PayPal account.

    Simplest way is probably just to create By-it-now buttons - https://www.paypal.com/uk/buttonfactory

    Most shopping cart scripts will include an option to use PayPal if you go beyond a simple page or two website.
