Crowd funding idea to find out how ebay works!

I had a crazy idea: crowd fund a research campaign to find out the inside workings of ebay :bump:

Would you pay $10 for indepth research of ebay's 'inside rules'?

The evil company has hidden rules.
You open an account and sell 11 things fast - you get banned.
You open an account and sell 10 things (low cost) fast... but you're OK.
Wait till the next month and you can now sell 20 items fast - but sell 30 and you get banned.
Next month, you sell 10 items of value more than $100 - you get a ban.
But if you stay below $99 you're fine.

I just made all of the above up.

It's all about numbers at the end of the day. :suspicious:
Knowing the exact numbers would be amazing.

If we got together and 1000 of us paid $10 each to conduct indepth research where we make accounts and test the system... we can figure out the workings of ebay!

We'd test out selling x number of items... we'd find out what the thresholds were. + do loooads more test to find out as many rules as possible.

A better solution would be to find someone who worked in ebay and pay them $xxx to tell us the rules. LOL.

Just a crazy lunatic idea. :doh:

Re: Crowd funding idea to find out how ebay works!

no it is not about numbers but about sanity , ebay's risk management is the same as with paypal

so do nothing you would not do on paypal

the only thing that really changed is that in the past ebay was easier to do because the risk was with paypal , now it is with ebay so the risk management moved from paypal to ebay

A AI bot only knows numbers.. it basically goes off a point system. Everything about your account and behavior. If you reach a certain point in the system then it gets suspended
