Oh no ignorance, just the bold truth. So many people got burned with this method. The only way I can see it being done with the current AZ's way of handling it is by having a bunch of unneeded chking account that you can burn and even then there is a risk of being deleted

The Run and Gun method is a listing strategy from the Amazon Ghost book. It's when you list and sell a lot of your stock without taking it slowly, until Amazon decide to remove your selling privleges and then wait 90 days for the money.

Stop RIGHT NOW.

The guide was written some back when this method was working. A guide is just that. It points you in a certain direction. The forum is created to work hand in hand with the GUIDE to allow users to find out what is CURRENT and what is no longer viable. Avoid being naive to think guides are never updated.

Always has been that practice.

YOU note that as soon as you started to speak of it, I posted to advise of its perils? Despite my advice you tried to push your desires. Only when I gave a ball park figure of the total of funds being retained by amazon for various users did you get the picture.

We have two guides with info to deal with ebay/paypal/amazon. We have a forum to allow users to be up to date with current trends. That is how people successfully use their purchases.

I came to the forum to ask questions and get advice which I love. What I do not love is how some people treat others on this forum. Most of us are new to this, so we do not need people talking down to us.

If you reread what I put I said it wouldn’t be worth it if they held the money. And then I only asked one more clarifying question because some people contradict each other in this forum.


BUT with all that said, again, I appreicate the advice and will take it!

Touchy touchy topic.
My knowledge on the subject cant be posted on here - sorry GB
My experience with the topic was purely by accident and resulted in an unexpected success.
I never repeated the process since I consider it highly unethical for me.
[please don't PM asking how I did it]
Good luck with your sales/tactics.

Did amazon delete your account before?

Yes they did but as always I come back. Not sure why you asked though. Usually My accounts get taken down due to what I sell, never something else. This was 2 years ago...

Most of us here are advanced past this level, including me, but you have the book and I don't. I just learn't from the posts of the wise on here and using my own judgement.

I wont get into any unethical advice on here or in PM if that's what you are getting at.

The guide and the forum are excellent tools and all my info will back that up.

Please pay attention to HWGA's post!

Thanks.

The point is ... amazon will delete your account at their will.. and you can never login in to withdraw money..
