Starting Fresh -Make sure I'm not stupid
 

So i just started my 1st stealth account. got chase bank, inumbr number, post office address, new ip..all the goods..got loads of ideas of things to sell( besides the stuff in my apt) and want to do it perfectly. While i was getting feedback by buying my 1 dollar ebooks, I actually found a way to list the ebooks so that they can last forever( i know that's not amazing, but i'm new) and I want to make sure this isn't too much of a red flag. My account is a week old, I have about 4 feedback, and i am currently selling" Tell me if I should just delete the non-classified ebooks . thanks

2 ebooks that last forever

1 classified ebook.

ebooks are not good to sell. On a new account anyway for sure. Not sure on the classified side. But you dont get feedback on the classifieds

wow.lol...that blows then..but i have a question.The person i bought the ebooks from listed it and sold like 121 copies of it ..and fast. But he didn't do it on classifieds..so he made 121 bucks just listing a resellable ebook? He had 700 feedback though, i have like 3.

Theres a big dif there, right?

Remember the account is new, so avoid anything considered high risk

Get rid of some stuff around home. Get some feedback and make a few bucks that way. There is no easy and overnight way to speed up the process without being at risk

get some physical books from Abebooks, or better yet go to barnes & noble and get some $2 clearance books and list them for cheap for feedback. Physical items work much better. Also as you sell small stuff and your feedback goes up you can sneak a high priced item in there little by little. After 30 - 60 days it's much safer ti sell high risk stuff. Remember to look around ebay, do searches and buy some stuff so you look like a new member.

Number one rule. Don't worry about what another seller is doing. It will only cause you to make dumb decisions. Eb00ks are fine. Just make sure you list in the "everything else" section, and don't ask for feedback.

From what I understand, eBooks are considered an item that people use to manipulate feedback. I think the Stealth Guide said it. So be a bit careful.

Yeah, but the stealth guide is just that, a guide. It's not gospel. The most important thing the stealth book empathizes is common sense. There is a right and wrong way to sell eBooks. I happen to know the correct way so I will never agree that eBooks are a bad idea. I don't recommend them for long term, but it's good for getting your eBay/paypal prepared for sales. I wouldn't invest one single dollar on junk to sell on eBay. They can boot you because your ID is annoying. Why risk being stuck with junk you can't sell? Why spend 60-70 dollars on buyers feedback that doesn't help your DSR when you can spend about 5 bucks for 30 quality feedbacks? LMAO....

eBook can raise a flag. Wait until you reach a good feedback number.

You need to think outside the eBook category when you're starting up. Don't even try to compare your model to that of a 700+ feedback person.

eBooks can last but so many get taken down even 60-90 days later. Just takes one report/slip up to take you down. If you want to experiment, go right ahead - have other accounts in the offing to prepare.
