two accounts hit by MC011 after reaching $10k!

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

10K is a lot....

You can get hit also after first sold item.

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

that is not just how much but: how much + what + how fast

if you want to have a turnover of 10K per month it would take you 1-2 years of account development

if you mean 10K made in total on a recent account then you could use the following math - you start with $500 per month and increase by 20% every month

this is how you do not get mc011ed

separate topic is what you sell , anything above $50 is considered expensive , anything above $100-$200 is super expensive

Total nonsense,how can any venue pay its bills?
The last time I looked,gold sells very welll,there are some gold dealers who sell gold in 6 figures,no MP,wiretransfer only.
Major gold dealers all sell on Ebay,also some on Walmart.
Hint-these dealers have their own websites,

open an account and try to sell gold , good luck with that

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

It works for these precious metal dealers,many individuals do as well,there is an Ebay saying -dont sell anything you cant afford to lose,that includes gold and everything else.
I sold a piece recently,to a dealer he is very happy,unfortunately I am not happy with the fees.

Yea, that's the typical hit . But it's mostly just them confirming your biz plan

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

Did you get the payment via transfer or still went via MP?

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

Mate you didnt tell us in which period of time (10$ k). How old account, category. You missed a lot of important details.

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

I upgraded a personal account to business, and at most have done $13k monthly (december) off a 6 month cycle. I don't think passing $15k is smart, so I've maintained mine around $7k-$10k per month. After a year of this monthly, maybe not personal but business I think it's safe to explore $15k+.

I try to always remind myself that its better to have a guaranteed lower amount from eBay than try to risk it, play games, and extend too much to quickly. It always ends the same for me. This is the first time since I started eBay back in 2013-2015 that I've taken a extreme serious approach to make sure I monitor all my service metrics, and keep sales limited to what I could do.

it is always better to have multiple accounts , for a recent account 10K are a lot even if it is not within a month but within 3 months

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

I listed it on Ebay and this gold dealer from Midwest bought it ,and he paid via MP.
The cc and Ebay fees is just too much.plus USPS priority shipping plus insurance. and signature confirmation.
Some seller try to minimise fees by open a small shop on Ebay,she said it was $35/month with limited listing but the FVF is less.

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

One year seller account and many categories not specific

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

So you earned 10k in 1 year period, right?

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

No, the account is one year old, but the sale is $10,000 happened in 3-month period

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

the account age is one year old as a seller but with no selling history, but the last three month I have sales in $10k

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

If I create a business account, will the same rules apply?

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

Yes - same rules apply - you should still sell slowly.

10k in 3 months is quite the figure - amazing though

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

I took an aged account from 2018 that had history buying, and started selling Sept, by December I did $14k. I guess thinking back I shouldn't have, but now I know if I stay below $12,500 my account is smooth sailing since I already tested those waters.

We have different factors, because every item has a completely different risk level with eBay.

The 3 month mark is most critical, then 6 months, I think after this a well managed account getting random MC011 is pretty low.

Re: How much sales can personal eBay reach before being hit by MC011?
 

business is even worse because they think you want to sell heaps

reasonable people who had their asses kicked by ebay many times would start private and upgrade to business later
