Ebay UK, safe???
 

Has anyone thought of listing on ebay UK?? I heard that they never even heard of suspensions over there. I'm going to try it and do a ship worldwide option on there so it will get the same exposure.

what kind of joke is this??? HELLLOOOO ??? lol ebay is same everywhere.. talking from experience :)

yeah ebay are just as bad here lost so many accounts i couldve cry lst month.

<-- UK

<-- Had Experience.

Glad I did, else I would not have found this valuable resource of a forum

well that's what I originally thought, but someone from Europe told me that they never even heard of suspensions on ebay; maybe they just personally use theirs as a buyers account.
However it's still a different territory with different tech people behind it, could be good for my stuff to be in a different light instead of running through the same fingers here in the states.

I have used them in the past, they lasted a little longer a few years back, but now almost as fast with suspensions. Canada is the easiest if you are going to try. Just remember to use Canadain ip proxy when setting up and logging in.

Really, tell me more about the Canadian ebay; can you still have it shipped worldwide? In other words does it come up in searches in the same way or is it more restricted to just Canada?
I have sold to many Canadian customers by listing worldwide so I guess it's the same in reverse.
But how would I go about getting a Canadian IP address? Is it realy that necessary? I'm just looking for my account to last like a month anyway, I don't really want to pay seller fees that bad! lol. Just long enough for a few sales to go through on one account at least. However if it lasts longer than great. I just try and look at the good side of an account getting blocked.

go to eBay - Deals on new and used electronics, clothing, collectables and more on eBay and sign up for a seller account. go to proxy4free.com or other site that list free public proxies and find an anonymous one from Canada. Public proxies are usually slow though and only last a few days though, but if you get pass the registation process you should be OK.

Thanks a million, you may have just saved me a lot of headaches and opened up a new door for me. Thanks very much.
But I went to the proxy website and didn't find any for Canada... Also, are these all IP addresses that are listed on here? should I just copy and past it into my IP address and replace my existing one? How does this work?

FYI-- Last year while they were doing their first set of Listing Limitations, i.e. now 75%---remember this?
Well-- My Account Manager, gave me a tip-- told me to REMOVE the Overseas/Asian Shipping on those "HOT" items...
--I did that, and they went through???
---So, What sets this off? I do not know, but has something to do with Ebay USA, NOT wanting suspected Vero items to go beyond Canada?/
BTW- Canada was o.k.

I thought Canada would be ok, but if someone could please let me in on the proxy thing; as I say I have a MAC.

Ok, I'm getting the impression that proxies are not the way to go as it raises other security questions as far as ebay goes and just puts up more red flags...
So would I be better off just using aol or something and registering under Canada ebay?
