It is all about be patient list one item best auction low starting price avoid vero items sell this one deliver get feedback then list 2-3 and build up slowly if you rush you might be lucky but you might not and what you have paid for account will be wasted slowly 2-3 months try to build reputation
I have a question, if I may, Once you gusy listed all this stuff (1 - 10 $ items or whatever), sold a little, gained some feedback... When would you guys start selling the real stuff.. Approx. how many transactions or feedback's would you gain, until you list the "real ****" that you wanted to list from the beginning?

You should be fine, I am posting after my first week as well, and hope these 2 items are not going to get flagged. I started both at $0.99 bidding with no reserve for two days.
I always list item the second day after the account is created. What I list was 15 poly bubble mailers for 1.99. The shipping costs 2.77 USPS first class but I can sold 5 in 3-4 days. After that, I start to list high risk items (~ 100USD value) and never got a problem
I sometimes will list something in my garage, like a bike part. I list it just to dbl check I can list without getting that MC999 error that everyone talks about (that I've never seen). Then end that listing immediately. Then I list Balls out. I have about 20-30 items at 10-20 available each item. Dollar amounts are anywhere from $9-$30. Never had a problem in 4 years with listing too fast.
That doesn't mean it can't happen as I'm sure it has...just not to me. I'm just saying.
