I screwed up !!!! Shame on me...

[GOGETER10]

Ok... I received a MC99 on a good established account recently.... I was having issues with my Stamps.com account and I was trying to clear it up. So I let over 125 orders just sit there without shipping them for 3 days. What was I thinking??... I was so caught up trying use stamps.com cheap postage I totally forgot how important it is to ship promptly. So learn from my mistake. SHIP IMMEDIATELY!!! No matter how well established your accounts is, Ebay will shut it off like a light switch....

did all 125 people open cases for purchases in just 3 days?

From my observations, ebay does not care about your dispatch times unless items are reported to be delivered on time by buyers.

I can also say that this is true, make sure you guys buy/print the postage so eBay thinks you are taking care of your orders.

I'm not sure where to post this but I made perhaps the biggest mistake so far since I started stealthing.

I made a new eBay store and after 2 weeks sold quite a few items. Payments are still pending on these items as it was a fresh store. After checking my other stealth stores and paying off ebay fees I completely got caught up paid the eBay fees on my new store! As the Paypal balance is still pending and I have no money in my VCC (Completely my fault) the fees might now come out of my attached bank account which is a savers account!!

How screwed am I and what are the consequences? Is there a happy ending for me :/

fees wont come out of a savings account because savings accounts dont accept the direct debit mandate, so it will just decline/bounce.

by the time that happens your payments should have cleared and you can pay your fees with your paypal balance.

It is highly unlikely you will get suspended or limited over this.

why not just top up your vcc using your real debit/credit card? i use a savers acc on one of my stealths....as Bunneh says, it won't pay out...but you need to be on the ball quicker

You don't get suspended over payment issues... After 2-3 weeks they just temporarily restrict your selling privileges until they get paid.

In general, yes if you don't pay up
