Need Advice: Intangible, high risk, & other expensive items ON eBay Stealth
 

I plan to get a eBay stealth with 10~20 feedback with high limits.

I was told by a merchant in order to sell high risk, the account should be aged and have at least 5 feedback, however that merchant doesn't provide feedback accounts, but I can still obtain one.

My inventory is:
- high risk (i.e. colognes, watches, electronics)
- Intangible (i.e. web services)

My listings is average of $500

-------------------------------------------

Can this not get a MC999 with that ebay stealth? If so, how should I position this account?

If high risk or intagible is a problem, can I still move to a non-high-risk category like furniture?

Any advice.

Thanks

PS Here is a seller with 16 feedback, selling $500 web service:

It'll never work for high risk items under those circumstances.

That said, is it a seller here? These guys generally know their stuff, and are pretty sharp.

And all your watches, colognes are all legit and you have receipts or invoices for those items?

Also, that seller you posted has been an ebay member since 2014.....also their feedback looks weird.

As for them selling the web services, they haven't sold any.

ANY account can get MC999, just because you get an account with feedback does not mean it's solid. Just by what you are asking it seems like your going to be doing some dropshipping and that can be risky as well.

Should be ok.

Just some advice, listing a lot of your $500 items is going to get your paypal account limited real quick and or most likely get both ebay and paypal requesting documents. I would suggest you list slowly and build up the sale quantity over time.

Not someone here but the dealer is also a long time high reputation seller. He said start off with low risk items, then lower price brand names, then go higher over time.

Legit and have receipts as unauthorized dealer.

What's interesting is the seller was able to list a $500 digital item, and is still posted. I guess the age of account can be a factor.

Age of an account is always a big factor.

Posted, not sold. The problem will occur once it sells. Worst case now is they'll pull the listing.

It doesn't really matter what EB or PP does with someone else, though, only what they do with you. They enforce rules unevenly and there's nothing you can do about it.

if the parts area legit and he has receipts, I don't really see the problem here.

He's wants to start selling $500 high risk items on an account with 10 feedback from low cost sales.

Receipts or not I think he's going to be DOA.

You still might have problems in the same, but if you can cover this documents, you may solve them and unsuspend the accounts.
Age and feedback history on accounts are essential when dealing with high risk high value items.
If you have this Rush to sell multiple of this items at once, assuming you make reasonable profits for the value you sell, you might consider buying more than 1 aged accounts. 1 account may not servive selling 4 of this items. But 4 accounts can sell the 4 items if well managed. Also, mix many low risk items for each risk item.
There are always many ways to divide and avoid this risks.

To an extent. He CAN be DOA. But he has info to back up what he's selling and you can talk your way out of it easy. But also, gotta start slow. Few months and I was selling brand name expensive stuff. Easy. Never even needed to prove anything.

I agree he has to ramp up to it.
