    Well EIN is mainly for having employees (Employer Identification Number) so you don't have to have one to sell online.

    The only way you can get an ITIN is by filing your US income taxes. At the same time you file the taxes you send form W7 from the IRS. There is more information on that here http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96287,00.html . It's completely free for an ITIN as well as an EIN if you get it directly from the IRS.
