need help with ebay account

[sapphirepro]

Hello I have 2 questions about my ebay account.

1- At the start I listed only low value things like books now I have 50+ positive reputation and I want to ask if now I can list more expensive items like monitors or game consoles (PS4) for example.

If they will not suspend my account immediately. Or I need to gain more positive reputation or list more items?

2- I switched my paypal from business to personal account because that was the only way to complete my verification process (I don´t have business)

And I want to ask if I pay same fees on paypal and ebay as I paid when my paypal account was set as business account? Or I pay higher fees when my paypal account is personal?


Hope someone will help me. Thank you.

Nobody can say for sure. We don't really know enough and EB is sometimes unpredictable.

A lot depends on the quality of the info you provided.

HOWEVER, in general, you say 'consoles', meaning more than one.

PS4's are quite a bit of money, relatively speaking, if you sold 50 $5 items and then you list something for $450, it will probably get some attention, and attention is never a good thing.

You might be able to sell one, but if you start to try to do a lot of them it probably will be a problem.

Go slowly.

I'm not aware of any fee difference between personal and business accounts, I have both, but if there is one it's pretty small.

Age of your account is also an important factor.
How long has it been since your first sale?

I have some backup accounts if this will be banned. But this account when I have 50+ reputation is almost one year old.

And how many transactions, what is the average price, and are the distributed evenly throughout the year, or are they recent? Do you have any chargebacks or dings?

Not a single chargeback, there are 60+ transactions and average amount is $100...

So you've sold some items into the several hundred dollar range and others for quite a but less, or they're all around $100?

How many transactions and how much last month?
