Flagged eBay for dropship
 

I think my account has been flagged for dropshipping reasons because visits on my insertions dramatically decreased.
Should I abandon this account and create another?

Always good to have backups going - how long has this account been active? feedbacks?

It is old couple years but feedbacks are few because I started selling now with it.

No reason to throw away the account.
You can unflag it or work with it flagged.
The real question is, are you dropshipping?
If so, you'll always be flagged.

You are not useful if you don't say how to do that.

Do you think is possible to get help like this?

Every account is different, every business model is different.
Nobody can tell you what you need to do with just a sentence in a forum.
The account should be reviewed, the business model and the income it brings, if is worth or not keep the account.

Check if is actually flagged, why is flagged, what supplier are you using and the different options to take.


There is no magic formula someone can tell you in 1 sentence.

If you want pm me with more details about the account

Do you use location misrepresentation or stock photos?

Re: Flagged eBay for dropship
 

I'd advise them not to PM you.

If they want any advice or you want to offer help then best do it on this forum, too many wanabee scammers work via PM's. :yar:

Hi everyone,

This is going to be quite a long post and an in depth post as well to help anyone un flag your their eBay accounts. So September 24th my eBay account got flagged. The reason it got flagged was due to drop shipping from amazon to eBay. I was using an API software shop master importing amazon listings/pictures to my eBay account and the eBay system decided to flag my account.

I’ve had numerous conversations with eBay reps through live chat how can I get my account unflagged? I was told to use correct item location so print labels from my home delete any software and any listings I had before. I already had some stock but it wasn’t really selling anymore.

So what I did was go to my local shops Poundland, home bargains, Asda, Aldi and find profitable products to sell. It wasn’t easy but I found some profitable items brought them took pictures of them quick description and listed them as 3 day auctions starting bid 99p and they sold some didnt but most of them did and I made profit.

I also brought a bit of stock from China High profit items and listed one item a week as used and they sold and made some profit too.

I noticed my eBay seller dashboard was looking more healthier than it did before I was doing this and to my surprise projected seller dashboard to be top rated seller November 20th.

When I saw this I got in touch with eBay and they said they will forward this onto the restriction team. November 19th the restriction team unflagged my account but my account still stayed as above standard which I wasn’t too happy about as it should be top rated seller but they said the evaluation was from October 20th to November 20th but will be top rated seller December 20th.

Anyway today I got in touch with eBay and they confirmed theirs no restrictions and no drop shipping policy on my account and my promoted listings have already increased and listings back to the top of the search results.

One of the most important factors of getting an eBay account unflagged is down to your seller dashboard my dashboard was above standard 5% late delivery rate at one point and I dropped it to 2.86% if I didn’t drop it then my account would still be flagged as eBay like to see significant improvements in your dashboard it’s very important something I wasn’t aware about. At the moment my late delivery is now 1.51% so it’s dropped nicely.

Maximum time for an eBay account to be flagged is 60 days can be earlier depending on the seller dashboard and depending on if you have changed your business strategy. It can take longer than 60 days if theirs no improvements to your seller dashboard ad if still no improvements account could be suspended.

At one point after 30 days I had the choice to send in business documents which I chose not to do you don’t have to send eBay anything just change your business model improve your dashboard and you will be unflagged again.

I hope this post helps anyone out their flagged accounts can be unflagged it can be done
