Yes, you sold something (baseball cap for $1.29).

Yes, you will need a PayPal account.

When you created the listing, you put an email address in the Payments section. Use that email address to open your PayPal account.

Once you create your PayPal account, and if the buyer has paid you, the payment will appear in your PayPal account. It could take a while to be deposited there after you create the account (hopefully just a few hours; it shouldn't take more than a day).

If the payment never shows up, you weren't paid.

Since you're offering free shipping, you're going to lose money on this sale. If you're going to sell other things, you need to take all of your costs into consideration.
