Hi, all
On fiverr.com, I see some people selling feedbacks. For 5 dollars, they can leave you 10 feedbacks from 10 eBay accounts. Then, you can cancel these transactions. So, you don't have to pay the final fee and get some nice sold figure for your listing. Sounds quite good for my new seller account...
Is this safe? Will it end with account limit?
help!

I wouldn't do it. eBay does not always catch the people doing this, but they DO a good percentage of the time. Are you willing to risk losing the account?
I just list some cheap items at first and then be sure to ship right away when an order comes in. I also include a small freebie with each of these orders to enhance the chances of the person leaving good feedback. It takes a little more time, but it works and it is safe.

I get it. One another thing: How do I boost the sold figure of an high value item, say the item is 100 dollars?
I really want the listing to look good before the season comes.
Thanks in advance!

As with anything, its better to take your tike and.do it right.
However, if you're intent on taking shortcuts, do it and report back.

Spend more time to study the market,promote your products and focus on doing good job on the service after sales.Then your ebay feedback will be increased automaticlly,thus you can sleep well on night time instead of worry about when ebay will take action to your account if you buy the feedback.

Teedon is right, why risk your account for a few feedback when you could legitimately build those feedback within a few weeks.

People like the easy way out, that's why.
If there was an easier and faster option wouldn't you be curious? The fact is buying feedback is risky and shouldn't be done.

How can you know for sure that those fiverr people use different ip addresses for the feedback they leave.. they may say they do but you dont have any guatantee and taking a risk on your account like that isnt a good idea at all.

help! | You want feedback?
Click first link below in my signature. Great way to get feedback + money at the same time. Quick ways like fiverr won't work because I am 150% sure ebay has under cover who buys the feedback then finds out what accounts they are and BAN HAMMER on all of them and probably people who paid for that service.
Then you'll make another thread in the suspension section with a sad story..... |
