İtem Location issue

[greenlaurel]

After creating an account, I set cookies for about a month. First, I list a small product. The product I listed is not going to sell. I boost the account. A week after this small product expires, I list a large listing. This is where the problem starts. I set the location of the large priced product (around $1500) to the USA. The address opened for the account is Turkey. When I change the product location, my account becomes reactive and then gets closed. I don’t understand why. What do you think is causing this problem?

I would think that a Turkish account selling a large dollar item in the USA with no selling history will be enough to close the account.

I have been selling from Turkey to the USA for years, you can say that I have been experiencing this problem for the last month.

Accounts with sales history are also being closed, I lost two accounts with successful sales, I don't think this has anything to do with accounts with sales history.

ebay do not welcome item location of another country unless you have selling history with location in the country of registration

and later when you switch to USA you should only start with small value items

they have exceptions for certain countries like UK and germany accounts where they are tolerant towards USA as location but with third world countries this is considered high risk

The same thing happened with accounts that had a sales history, I think something has changed, what you said was valid in the past, accounts without a sales history are always dangerous.

selling history does not count if you list expensive items

Do you really have these items in USA or are you doing retail arbitrage,how do you prove you have them in USA if asked?
I called a bank yesterday just to close my damn credit card,and since my phone would not accept its sms,the verification expert comes online and asked me a bunch of stupid questions before they will close the account,i mean close not applying a new account.

The products are in the USA and I have receipts to prove they are in the USA

I have to because it is sent from the USA, if I do not give the correct address and postal code, I will be doing retail arbitrage as you mentioned and eBay does not like that.

this depends on the selling history , it counts and a lot , if you want to sell such items from USA you would need to have 6+ months selling history with regular sales of similar items

wel,then it could be the asking price is too high,try something lower than $100.
Ebay does pay attention if a seller used to see items under $100,then starts listing high price items ,

Thank you very much for your support.

I experienced the same situation with an account that I have been actively selling for 9 months. There is not much difference between accounts with no sales history and accounts that are not well established. I think it is possible to sell within certain limits in a well established account. I think the situation I experienced was a small mistake, but I may have gotten confused by thinking too much. 😂

10 accounts

just to add some info, Turkey is considered a very risky country to operate.

[lordboleron]

Have you sold same item from Turkey? Or same price item?

I have to delete my post because you deleted your questions.
