How should I tread selling cell phones on a new account?
 

I've never sold on Amazon before, and just created a new account with all real info. My goal is to pass all hurdles/reviews as soon as possible, so I don't have any problems in Oct/Nov/Dec.

So I want to start with Samsung cell phones. They are brand new, nothing shady, and go for $200 on Amazon, and Amazon themselves are the cheapest vendor. I want to sell them as FBA and put them at $180 or so. There is no profit for me here, all I want to do is pass review, and show amazon than I'm an honest vendor. When I start selling for real in Oct/Nov/Dec, my price points will be between $150-400 and in electronics, so I figure this is a step in the right direction.

How many items should I send at a time to FBA? My other concern is, since I'm not making any money on this, is I want to make sure I don't wake up one morning with a deleted account and amazon has all my stuff. Again, everything is 100% legitimate, and I'd be able to provide receipts if amazon wants them.

u got brand new, nothing shady ? so best option do not use FBA, unless u have a serious reason to, that is worth the risk.
I would split on few accounts at least.
