Advice For Listing Restricted Items
 

I have a few brand-new very specialized sport clothing items that I want to list on Amazon but not sure if it worth it. I just got paid on my stealth account so don't want to mess it up by drawing to much attention to it. The clothing items are not something I would sell on a regular basis but they are very high quality and fetch a very nice price on Amazon. Absolutely no vero items or anything like that. Is it worth applying to be approved to sell clothes or should I just sell them on Ebay? Any words of wisdom?

I believe there are other people who sell in clothing and can give you some advice. Bottom line, if your account is new, I don't think you'll be getting approval to any restricted categories. Application requirements are steep and strictly enforced.

if you need approval to sell on amazon that can be difficult to obtain.

I have concerns about suggesting you go ahead & sell on ebay.

'A specialized sport item' may be subject to vErO rights. Can you qualify for the right to sell the item(s)? Is it possbile to prove their authenticity? ;)

Do you have an ebay account capable of doing this? If not rethink the plan.

A ew ebay account low FB & say under 2 months old may cause problems.

You are in a spot, my friend:smash: Incorrect choices for either selling platform could cause account damage. That must be avoided. :peace:

yes, I can prove their authenticity, I bought them direct from the manufacturer, they are gi's. my ebay account is over 10 years old at this point so I should be good to go in that regard.

if you need approval to sell on amazon that can be difficult to obtain.

I wouldn't so much say "difficult" as time-consuming and costly to build up the sort of profile they will require. The path is clear, but it's a very long one.

Amazon doesn't have a program like VERO (which is a acronym used for eBay's implementation of DMCA requirements); they police the site themselves. You will not get to the point of having to prove authenticity. If Amazon suspects ⊗⊗⊗⊗, you will probably be booted.
