To the best of my knowledge, eBay does not really look into reports unless it comes from official sources or there are many reports.

Re: eBay first item
 

Exactly. So you'd need to receive reports from numerous different sellers. However a few reports from customers would have a quicker impact on you. So just make sure they are satisfied.

Let me help you as the first fellow citizen that I see in this forum :)
How to make feedback faster: sell cosmetics from brands like Golden Rose, Rosa Impex, Eveline, Avon and etc. Sell EVERYTHING (henna, nail polish, sticks and etc.) that cost under 5 bugs from this brands. They are easy to find in BG :) Also, items are smaller and cheaper for delivery. Sell without profit and you will make huge number of feedbacks.

And let me use this topic to ask one question :)
I have one sunglasses that I do not use (Ray-Ban). They are new (not used, not fit on my face) and I open new auction in ebay UK. The starting bid was 1/3 from the original price (another RB sellers start from this price too), pictures was original, made by me with good quality and item was listed as "new with tags". A few hours after the auction start, my listing was removed for "Trademark Violation -Unauthorized Item". Account is more than 2 years old, has 600+ only positive feedbacks and it's top rated status. What may be the reason for triggering this removal? Item status - New with tags?

P.S. Most epic item: try to find did someone sell bulgarian tee :)

A lot of what you've said is very bad advice. It will toast new accounts in no time.

Re: eBay first item
 

Did you try to selling this brands? Brands are very popular her in Bulgaria and if you filter your searching by location (Bulgaria), you will find that 90% of the BG sellers are selling this brands. Two of my accounts go up 150 item/month for less than 90 days without any issue with this metod.

P.S. Ebay UK

About pictutes. Which one is better guys, light and detailed photos or darker and average quality ? Many or few ?

Thanks.

Re: eBay first item
 

A picture which shows what you are selling without the clutter to go with it. :)

Re: eBay first item
 

What can I do to make description look completely different, except new font, new color? Item info is not big. To learn HTML and CSS listings in the future? And the item specifics can be the same ?

Thanks

Re: eBay first item
 

You really dont need to learn about HTML / CSS for the sake of listing on eBay.

Just make the description different in terms of how you describe something.

If your selling a coffee mug on multiple accounts, just describe the coffee mug differently.

LIke. .

Re: eBay first item
 

it will be fine

Re: eBay first item
 

Hi guys,

Can I stop using tracking for cheap items after the account already has 10 positive feedback ratings ?

When can I start listing cheap items as "new", after 20-30 feedback ratings ?

Thanks in advance.

Re: eBay first item
 

You could. You dont have to use tracking for cheap items anyway, but it just adds that extra level of trust as a seller when ebay / paypal reviews you, especially during those early days.

If you've already got 10 positive ratings from selling, then you can go ahead and start listing them as new, but make sure to continue taking things slow.

Re: eBay first item
 

Will be a problem if I use stock photos (wiped with BP) for low risk and low cost items on an old account ?

Re: eBay first item
 

Nope. The issue with stock photos is different to those with EXIF data.

EXIF data can link accounts, that can lead to suspension.

But with Stock images, you'll get suspended for being suspected of drop shipping.

Two different reasons for limitation.

Re: eBay first item
 

Best to use self-taken photos - does not take long

Re: eBay first item
 

Can I list on few stealth accounts on the same day or there is a risk ?

Thanks

Re: eBay first item
 

Thats fine. So long as theres no similarities between them.
