Agree - those anti-detect browsers...I'm not a big fan

Be thankful for any sales you do get. Save whatever money you can and maybe one day have enough to not have to deal with ebay anymore.

The core factor truly impacting 70% of your sales is the combination of a reset ranking mechanism and a breached price anchor.

They figured out how to bypass the system or our paying somebody on the inside to get a higher limit. I know few people who got higher limits by doing it like that.

I don't think you understand. They are pumping out at least over 1 to 2 dozen accounts per day. Wise words , trying to sound like, you know what you're talking about without a solution, is not workable.

I've had days where I sold $600 order and nothing for the rest of the day on all accounts.

Next, you're gonna tell me to be wise, grasshopper.

Or pounding so many accounts that the sheer volume allows some "sht" to get through?

What is even worse is that eBay's cyber security is a total joke. Now there are softwares that can hack tons of ebay accounts you can actually buy them on the dark web. They come with all the personal info including SSN and already had phone number swapped, you just need to add a bank account to start selling. If ebay doesnt fix this(it s been going on for a while). I can only see the site becoming a total junkyard in a couple of years.

Wild stuff - you've seen them working?

It would have to be a hack from the inside - the anti bot stuff would shut that down in a minute...

yes many accounts are active and running. I can even buy one right now. But I think they are relatively vulnerable.

hey hey hey.. that's not fair. E-commerce in general is a race to the bottom junk yard. Nature of the beast.


As for the guy claiming functional seller accounts are being sold on the dark net.. nahhh, that's BS.

All you can do is either find something else to sell, or provide a better quality product with better pictures/marketing and/or pay eBay a % to promote your listings.

You have to either find a way to match their prices with your goods being in the West or slightly undercut them.

Another thing is a lot of buyers on eBay would prefer to purchase from their country of origin than China.

That being said, if their prices are much lower, people will purchase from them as at the end of the day everyone wants to save money..

[agent006140]

sell something not made in China,there are things they do not make or do not make well.

[Automasters]

I like to steal stuff back from them - reverse engineer products they stole from here, then make changes to it they cannot do easily...
