> If Sold decides my product would work best on eBay, then is there the appropriate configuration options so that I can define minimum bid and user reputation?

I don't know if this is the case, but I'd hope they would completely abstract away the particulars of eBay vs Craigslist vs anything else. I.e. you wouldn't have to know or care about minimum bids or buyer reputation. Sold just tells you the price, you accept it, and they pay you. Problems with the eBay buyer? Sold absorbs that time and money cost. At least that's how I would want it to work.

> And if so, how much convenience does Sold's wrapper over this process give me over just directly using the service itself?

If all the effort and risk of selling an item is abstracted away as I suggested above, then that would be a great deal of value added, at least for me.

> Now if I were selling lots of things in a fairly regular interval...how does Sold scale?

I don't know the numbers yet, but I'd have to guess you'd be better off managing your own sales and shipping at that point. You could still use a marketplace site like Etsy or eBay. But I don't think you'd want a second layer of middlemen, which Sold is. It sounds like Sold is for one-off, consumer-to-consumer transactions.
