| Sorry, but you're literally asking ebay to take a closer look at your account. What a ridiculous approach. Quote:
Yes I agree 2 months is still very fresh but not classed as a new user. Will be interesting to see if my high risk item sells and I get paid for it and if I get a limit or not.
| Nope, after a mere 8 weeks of existent it most definitely is classed as a new user. That why you still have tiny limits and disbursement restrictions. Quote:
Theirs always a risk of an item being reported but it’s the same if you sell a cardboard box if it’s not described it goes against you.
| Why would you misdescribe! Quote:
I recently saw a seller selling car parts and his account was limited due to amount of returns he was getting.
| No you didn't. Why say that? Quote:
The thing with eBay whatever you sell is not safe eBay can shut you down or ask for documents for anything.
The only way to work around eBay is to have many back up accounts and rotate them around.
Focusing on one account is an absolute disaster in my opinion.
| It sure is with your approach, what does rotation achieve? I'll tell you, absolutely nothing, indeed, you'll get limit increases faster if you max out one account at a time than you will faffing around with several under-used accounts.
But I will agree with you, with your business model then focusing one one account is a disaster.
Think hard about my advice earlier, find a way to make that one account not only profitable in the long term but also pleasurable and stress-free to run or you'll never make it a full time business. |
