Really I got scammed from a seller Ahmed
 

Well guys this is my story this seller Ahmed he is a seller that only supposed to sell eBay accounts so I contact him he told me that he go some renting services as well 500 a month so I asked how much I can sell, He told you can sell up to 50k as long you are not a dropshipper and I say are sure this the item I sell I sent him a picture he looked it up and he say yea you sell that no problem
So I sent the 500 he sent me the account I start selling and after 5 sell eBay ask for invoices,the account that sent me only was 100 items or 7k limit, I ask a insider that I have to take a look of that account he told that account it gone it’s has 172 high risk suspension so I try to contact him he told that it’s was my fault I say how it’s my fault if I ask you in the beginning, long story short I ask him to send a new account and we are even because I know he is not going to refund the money so he blocked me

Please admin this a safe place to buy account or not
This shouldn’t happen if are seller you should only sell if you don’t have the experience do not offer another services because this can happen and buyer will loose money and tired to loose money
I’m great buyer I bought several accounts over the years always send the money without hesitation

Also I post a tread and got deleted so if this is not safe tread anymore just inform me that so I can take my business somewhere else

get some experience first , on a new account or any account without recent selling history even 1K is a large amount which may get you suspended

if you want to make high turnover it would take months of building up the account on low volumes

I know that but he rents me a mature account for 500 dollars a month i sold 5 items and got toasted

Re: Really I got scammed from a seller Ahmed
 

if you rent an account it does not mean you should treat it differently from an own account , you sell 5 items for $50 and deliver on time you will not be suspended

this of course creates the issue that you pay $500 per month but can only sell a little in the first 3-6 month so that the account already costs you 2K-3K until you can start doing some reasonable turnover

not worth renting when you can learn to create your own and operate

Put it like this, if you rent a sports car, 99% times you're going to beat on it, so anyone that rents and eBay account, surely aint going easy on it!

Re: Really I got scammed from a seller Ahmed
 

Anybody that rents an account is asking for trouble, the items that the OP is selling looks like they are high risk and he seller can not be responsible for that. My advice is research and practice making stealth accounts until you get it right

Re: Really I got scammed from a seller Ahmed
 

renting an account may only work if it is developed the same way as any other account

a gradual increase of renting price may work here but starting selling volumes immediately without development begs for restriction , ebay do not just restrict for volume but also if the account suddenly starts selling different types of items in relation to recent selling history (assuming there is meaningful history)

what were you selling?

And what insider? Fiver insider? =)

Re: Really I got scammed from a seller Ahmed
 

You'd rather rent an account for $500 a month instead of buying one for 200-300???

Re: Really I got scammed from a seller Ahmed
 

How many money you have take for this 5 items ?

Re: Really I got scammed from a seller Ahmed
 

if ebay allowed you to do initial sales without suspension you can continue selling , there is an issue with people thinking they can set up business on ebay quickly while this is not possible

it takes months of low value sales to be able to do any significant volumes at all , any attempt of running volumes on a recent ebay account is considered high risk

regarding ahmed , I think his fault here is that he should not give too much hope to people buying or renting from him , they can not start selling anything substantial in the near future
