I did get the account review about 2 weeks after i opened it and they applied a rolling reserve, i just didnt sell much while they were doign that and then they sent me an email that said you are good to go.

I have been buying the postage on thier site within hours of something selling and also ive gotten all 5 star reviews from th 5 people that have left comments out of the 10 sales.

Will i still get another account review?

You need to go through 4 reviews before you can worry free about reviews. That is from my experience at least.

If you dont get complaints and get feedback amazon is very good to you but just dont get sloppy otherwise you will come here crying in a few weeks/months.

You have been operating well too date - all the best. How much feedback as a buyer did you get?

[ShaftSlinger]

my buyer account was probably 10 years old. I have no idea if anyone ever left me feedback as a buyer. I didnt know that happened on amazon.

I registered with a different email address on the seller account but i use the same computer so they probably know who i am

I think i now have about 75% of the people thath ave purchased from me leaving feedback, all 5 stars so far.

^well thats why right there. your using a 10 yr old amazon acct

[Gamefreak]

Right why would they want to cann you when you started using them when they were a nobody..

But the feedback helps A LOT.

[Recherché]

Possibly it may help that the account is a decade old, but one of amazon's many policies is if there is a large spike in sales regardless of age, it would be put under review.

[ShaftSlinger]

i have to log in with a different email to get to my seller account. do they still know who i am?

I did roughly 20k in sales so far this month and probably will do another 5 k by month end.


The thing im worried about is that they will ban me and lock up my money. this is big $$$ to me and i cant afford to have them sit on it for 6 months.

All i know in my case is when i hit 700 bucks before the 21 days I get my account in review. When I hit 400-450 they do not touch it. so some one has a hair trigger.there should be no reason why any one should be put in review when you first start .They have your money locked up to start. and you are only receiving the first 7 days of sales on your first transfer anyway.not the full 21 days/ makes no sense. It is only benefiting them not the buyer. it has to do with how much money they can squeeze out of the seller. I will try 1 pro merchant and see if i get paid in 14 days(all my funds)

Any thing special i need to start a pro account nowdays?????

[KingDog]

Let me know how it goes with pro merchant.

OP selling laptops, its not a hot area.
