Just want to say I created new eBay & PayPal account bought vcc for $10 and left the accounts for 2 days done some bidding and tried selling a wall clock today and I got blocked. Can someone please tell me what I done wrong? Thanks. |
Re: I got blocked again for selling wall clock List all your steps of account creation kane_lynch.

| afincho | 01-31-2020 10:03 AM | Re: I got blocked again for selling wall clock I believe that 2 days it's too early. I would build some legit history on the account and age it for at least 3 weeks. Add some items to the cart, watch a few items here and there. the good old days when you were able to list items quickly does not exist anymore |

It’s just a normal plan clock no make or design. I listed this clock before on my previous accounts to and nothing happened it just started I don’t know why. |

If once, you uploaded a picture of the product, and this account is blocked. Then you again created a new ebay account, and uploaded the very same picture of the product - here the ebay sees something and does its “black work” |

What does that mean I’m not allowed to use the same picture again and again on new accounts? |

Or there is the option. clear picture data. Free EXIF Eraser is a free lightweight software that allows you to easily and effectively delete entire EXIF / IPTC / XMP information from image files. All you have to do is simply select a directory containing image files and EXIF eraser will erase all the EXIF data from the files in this directory. |

Right I get you bro. I’ll use a different picture now and see what happens to the account going to start now. |

Borsch is such a soup, it should stand. this is when you make a steak, and you want it to be insisted, saturated with spices, when pickling meat. So with your account. Do you want to sell as soon as you create an account? - this is mistake. You have to buy something first ... wait a couple of three days. |

No I don’t know what borsch is I have googled it and know now bud.
Yes I want to rush it and list up straight away why is that a issue? I have been indefinite suspended from 7 accounts while doing this rushing the account. |

and another proverb
Do not be in a hurry to tie what you cannot untie!
I do not want to seem abstruse!
But you should wait ... before selling.
You can’t sell fast, an ebay machine is just a machine, it’s not a person, but not stupid either. |

Clearing all the metadata isn’t enough. The picture must not match another photo in their system, especially one tied to a suspended account. Photoshop is your friend. Even changing the dimensions is a good idea. |
| alpet | 02-02-2020 03:49 PM | Re: I got blocked again for selling wall clock Why you don´t make another photo? A few seconds job. |

There is no easy way if you want long success. Put in the effort and reap the reward. Shortcuts will be your downfall. |

The same wall clock image I have used couple of times and it worked I think eBay has clocked on now every time I list they block me. |
| Ebayorbust | 02-03-2020 12:02 PM | Re: I got blocked again for selling wall clock 1. Stop using VPNs to open accounts. Use residential or mobile broadband. Once the account is established, by all means switch to IPBurger if it's easier for you.
2. Use different images on listings.
3. Stop trying to list the same item as a first item.
4. Wait until the account hits 30 days before listing.
5. Ideally buy some items first before selling.
6. List on auction to start with.
7. List LOW RISK, LOW VALUE items.
8. Don't open shops or subscribe to any sales tools like selling manager until you've got a few sales under your belt.
9. If you do get suspended, calling versus using Live Chat will mean you are more likely to be reinstated (assuming you have stopped using a VPN). If you are still using a VPN then you are very unlikely to get reinstated.
Try the above and you're more likely to get your accounts off the ground. |

Okay mate I’ll try this method out and see what happens. With the mobile broadband dongle will I need to keep the SIM card topped up at all times? And I was thinking creating the accounts with mobile broadband and then using the ipburger.
Thanks in advice. |
| Pandoras_box | 02-04-2020 01:34 PM | Re: I got blocked again for selling wall clock I've always thought that if eBay/PayPal had to select one person on this forum that they should be terrified of, it would definitely be
Ebayorbust.
His post will help save a lot of accounts. |

| campos | 02-17-2020 05:17 AM | Re: I got blocked again for selling wall clock How do you define *established* ?
email, name & password?
vcc verified?
phone number verified?
Thanks. Quote:

8. | What would be considered low value or low risk? I usually sell used auto part between $50-100, sometimes as high as $300. Do I need to start with less than $50? Less than $20?
Years ago when I needed to get my percentage sales counts up I would sell golf tees to myself through a two different accounts at $.01 ea. Never got flagged for it then, have the algorythims changed? |

Personally I started off by selling old books, some of them sold between £2 and £10. |
