Default First item sold

I sold my first item on my stealth account but the buyer hasn't paid yet. Should I list another item or should I wit until I get paid from this item and ship out the item to the customer? Any suggestions???

If a buyer hasn't paid in a couple days after the auction, I'll usually send them a "friendly reminder" asking about payment. If after another 2 days I don't hear back, I'll open UPI (unpaid item) case. Once I do that, buyer has another 4 days to pay, otherwise I'll close the case and get my fees back.

Buyer also supposedly gets a "strike" for not paying, but it's doubtful eBay takes any action(s) anyway.

Depends on the item you sold, category, and most importantly, price.

I assume the PayPal this EB is linked to is also new. If so, you really should be more concerned what PayPal will do if you take in too much too fast.

The best policy is to follow what's in the stealth guide when breaking in a new stealth account. The bottom line is slow & steady wins the race.

Since it's only a $2 item, likely low risk, there should be no reason for you to make another listing before receiving payment for the first listing.

$2 is really not much, and in fact is a good starting point for first item on a brand new account.

Gradually scale the number of items and prices over time.

GO ahead and start selling more. If you listed 1, the next time, list 2 or 3 .

You should be good to go.
