1.Timing for Higher Turnover: The safe period for scaling up sales, especially with medium-risk items like collectibles, varies. Generally, a gradual increase after 30-60 days is advisable, assuming you've had consistent positive feedback and no major issues. However, each account might be different, and eBay's algorithms can be unpredictable. Monitor your account's health closely as you increase your turnover.
2.30 vs 60 vs 90 Days: This is subjective and depends on various factors, including your selling history, the type of items you're selling, and your customer feedback. While some sellers find their accounts are more stable after 30 days, others suggest a longer period like 60 or 90 days for a safer margin. Again, gradual progression and staying alert to any warnings or changes in account status is key.
3.Listing After Reinstatement: A suspension can indeed act like a reset for your account. After reinstatement, it's wise to proceed cautiously as if you're starting anew. This means adhering to the conservative listing practices you would use for a new account, at least for the initial few weeks post-reinstatement.
4.Migration to Fresh
Dedicated IP from
IPBurger: The timing of this switch is tricky. It's generally safer to make this transition after your account has established a solid track record (around 60-90 days). However, always weigh the cost against the risk. If the residential IPs are significantly more expensive, consider the switch earlier but proceed with caution.
5.Using Multiple Accounts on
Residential IP: To avoid linking accounts, ensure that each account is accessed from a unique IP address. Using Chrome's incognito mode can help, but manual tracking of IP changes is crucial. Long-term feasibility depends on your vigilance in ensuring no IP overlap between accounts.
6.Indicators of Account Stability: A limit increase or access to promoted listings can be positive signs, but they don't guarantee that your account is out of the risk zone. It's better to continue cautious listing practices, especially if the account is less than three months old.
7.Balancing Limits and Cautious Growth: Striking a balance is essential. While maximizing your limits can signal to eBay that you're an active seller, it's vital to not appear too aggressive, especially in the first couple of months. A strategy could be to use a significant portion of your limit (e.g., 70-80%) while ensuring you're not listing high-risk items and are maintaining positive feedback.
