new account

henryfalmore · #1 03-03-2023

I'm starting a new account. I'm gonna list something soon maybe this coming Sunday. any tips on starting this new account? should I browse for 7 weeks before listing anything?

thanks love you

I don't think browsing for 7 weeks is necessary. Would a real person do that?

Any new account will get suspended doesn’t matter if your browse or not

I like browsing and bidding for 2-4 weeks but that's my play - 7 is long

henryfalmore · #5 03-05-2023

well I browsed around for a couple of days. I added my phone number today and address. I listed my first item a toy from a popular cartoon. my selling limits are 50 items or $700.00USD (whichever comes first) I pray it works out. thanks love you

Have you had the chance to read the stealth guide yet?

IMO you don't have to wait longer than a week, just have some browsing and some random inexpensive safe items on your watch list.

Make sure your 1st item is being sold as used and under $20. and most of all safe and non-branded and using your own pictures.

I recommend selling a safe item and sell as an auction first $0.99 no reserve and charge shipping, do this for 3 months increasing your amount of listings.

agreed - funko pop is way too risky to sell initially

I created a lot of accounts and I list immediately after creating, and accounts sometimes suspended, sometimes not.

**SaiJin** · #17 03-13-2023

it also depends on what you're selling. It's not just one thing

JamesNorth101 · #18 03-14-2023

7 to 10 days browsing

List a low risk 7 day auction

No brands
Keep it under $20 but over $5

Let it run and then list other items

Beautiful and simple - patient approach

degsey69 · #20 03-14-2023

I find that 7 day auction with a 0.99 start and also if you also put on the listing that the buyer can pick up the product (nobody ever does) with a safe product limits the risk of being suspended. Also if you can buy on the account and do 3 or 4 purchases really makes it a rock solid bet that the account will be successful.

You really think buying with the ACC makes a big difference from what you have experienced?
