getting ready to list
 

I've already set up e bay/pay pal (almost 30 days) with bank and vcc.I have a name variation, my neighbors address, google voice to my cell,gmail acct as per stealth and a block of 5 ips....
Going to sell on 1 acct only to start..selling books I have around the house.Taking pics with iphone and putting it through the batch purifier....

Am I good to go??? Trying to do this right the first time!:sweat:

Sounds like you've covered all the bases - Good Luck. :clap:

Sounds decent from what I have seen - new user account I would imagine, right? no previous usage of same user account in windows that was used for a banned eb ay.

thanks....yea new user account. Flash not installed and cookies are good. Never logged into suspended accounts. I have been going really slow on this account, reading the foum daily for anything new....

Time to play me thinks - go for it hon and good luck!! .=}

Go slow is the recommendation - don't go too nuts - try to imagine that you are new to eb ay

Good luck!!

Yeah good luck.

Just wanted to ask though, has ANY of your current stealth info been used before?

Or is every single bit of info new. :D

Every single bit of info new.....I am going to start list next week.

Is it ok to sell old broken electonics like cameras/laptops for parts??? I want to try this for the next stealth.

Can't hurt to try - report back.

Just make sure you describe the item to the T ! I sold a broken laptop and accidently put 550 gb hard drive instead of 500.... And the buyer made a claim for a refund....

Also, another basic tip, start by selling the cheapest items first.

find stuff around your house, buy from ebay and then sell it again on ebay, go slow

^^ I do this sometimes, though I would say that it is important that you do not lose money on items. Buying from ebay and selling back on ebay can often result in a loss.

Seems worth it if your going to have a good ebay account right? What about if you get suspended as soon as you do increase sales to make profits! All you have done then is lost money trying to get an ebay account going.

Just work out your profit before you list an item, break-even instead of losing money, seems straightforward but many people neve bother when they first start selling.

LOL - I love it! When I first started selling I couldn't understand why I made no money - I had forgotten to factor in P&P and EB & PP Fees. Soon learnt the error of my ways.

One thing I have learned is that the profit is made in the buying. The selling is just collecting the profit.

The OP is selling bits that basically stand him in nothing and so I think he has the right idea to move forward with his first stealth.

It looks to me like he has taken great care, done everything he should and would be very unlucky if he fails.

Come back and tell us how it went

All the best OP and may your god go with you!! .:yar:

So today I listed 1 book for 7 days...its up and I hope it stays up:hail:

^^ All I can say brandrich30 is, good luck :thumb:

:D

Recap.... I've listed a total of 4 books ( never removed ) but never sold...!
:lol:
Still taking it slow, just going to move on to something that hopefully will sell
:ahhhhhh:

^^ Hmm, yeah I have sold books in the past for feedback, they do struggle for traffic if they are obscure. With the obscure titles I used to sell for feedback, I used to just list them as auction and take the loss.

DVD's used to be my favourite household item to sell. Bigger demand and slide into padded envelope easily! lol

These days, with multiple accounts, my focus is to avoid taking any kind of loss at all, even when building feedback. As it can become repetetive and multiple loses over multiple accounts can sure hit the wallet.
