eB@y.com with AUSTRALIAN account
 

Would it be okay to list items on eB@y.com (U.S.) from an Australian account (eB@y.com.au)?

Would this raise any flags and/or increase my chances of suspension?

Please note: I do not even know if this is allowed

It's absolutely fine, just log into eb.com (using AU account) and list as you normally would on ebay.com.au.

I have been doing this from the UK for ages and never raised any flags at all.

It is allowed, you just have to agree to a notice that makes sure you know you are listing on an eb site in a different country.

Thanks very much for your detailed response I appreciate it

Would I have to be mindful of how many items I list on both sites? Do all the listings appear on the .au site under 'Selling', or would I have to login to each site individually to see the listings?

I never usually have more than 5 items on each site but that is just due to the type of item I list, I don't see why you couldn't list more.

You will be able to view the listing on the .au site under selling yes. However, if you want to relist or second chance offer then you will have to log back into the .com site.

Another thing, I have to go into PP to accept each payment I received from items I sell on .com site. Not sure if this is because each transaction is $200+ or if I need to change a setting somewhere to automatically accept them... Anyway doesn't really bother me!

can you list on the .com site if your restricted for 7 days on the .com.au site?

I am sure restrictions carry over.
