Default eBay Europe account - question on selling

So I've got a high selling limits account from someone on the forum, bought it and want to know, in order for me to start selling single non-vero products that are 5-10k$ a piece, would I get flagged quickly from eBay?

When do you recommend selling those type of products? It's aged already but 0 feedback on the account, jw how you guys would approach this...

Selling high value items on a new account will get you suspended straight away. You have to build trust with eBay start off with non VERO items below £50, ideally with the first few on £0.99 auction and build gradually. It’s frustrating but gaining eBay’s trust gradually will build a cast iron account. Also if you are going to sell items of that value you have to have a business account, if it’s personal it will have to be converted during your sales building period.

What about if the item is a one off sale? As in 1x quantity and it's approx 5-10k?

How long do you advise on selling out for, 3-6 months or?
I've seen new eBay accounts/0 fb selling iPhones, idk how?

if you want a stable account that can sell such items on a regular basis you need to do many small value transactions at the same time

for example in the first 6 months only small value transactions in quantities and after that 200-250 smaller transactions per month with 20-25 expensive items mixed into them

obviously order defect rate and especially percentage of disputes solved with ebay involvement would need to be zero or minimal as well with reliable tracking being provided for all expensive transactions immediately after despatch

Mhm was only thinking of selling 1-2 items at a high price but they were not going to be electronics or branded goods.

even if it is just a few items , you need a foundation in form of selling history

it is not the same if you just sell expensive items and if you sell some expensive items among many cheaper items

You will quickly be flagged with items worth 5-10K$. Start with items under $50, and avoid selling over $500 in the first month to avoid performance reviews
