Most Efficient Methods To Build A Stealth Acc

[hello1212]

Hey guys,

So my method has always been solid in terms of bypassing the initial trust stage with eBay, but it's quite slow..

I usually list cheap used household items (e.g. used clothes etc.).
2 items at a time on a 7 day auction starting price £0.99.
I then wait for the 2 items to deliver, then list another 3 items, same way.

To reach faster payouts / trusted seller status, it requires 10 successfully delivered sales + £150 in total sales (in the UK).

With my method it takes about 4-5 weeks to meet the criteria where you can slowly start increasing the value of the items your selling (~30-45 days).

Would you know if there was a more optimal / faster way to go about this process?

I've always been worried to list more than 2-3 items at a time on a fresh account (even aged) so yeah would like to know if anyone had any insights to it!

Appreciate it

Slow and solid wins the race...hmm

4-5 weeks is pretty good.

I personally create some buying activity for some 2-3 months at least , then turn into a seller and then get going

With buyer activity, how do you go around doing this?

Because you would have to change your delivery address to your own address?

But what if it's a banned residence? Can't link that surely..?

1 way is having access to different addresses...but another way is to bid on things and not win + bid on crap and don't care about receiving them...

I just buy some random cheap **** like some paperclips and send to the account address which is a made up name and address.

All that really matters are the seller metrics once the account starts selling.

yeah I thought of that but seems unnecessary, seller metrics/feedback is way more important but I guess buying stuff is a fast way to boost your feedback number

Boosting the feedback number by buying doesn't really work for the metrics of selling (as you know) but there's something about spending money and building activity before rushing into selling that seems to have some effect...

That does sound logical, I've never done that myself and had an issue selling that being said..

Don’t ebay uk do a soft credit check? How are you getting around using random details?
