Anybody know what this is? Over 3000 + FB buys no selling?

[joesshooze]

I had somebody buy several items from me that when I investigated had several accounts with only + FB's for like 3 or 4 thousand items all very, very different. I was just curious what they were doing. Also their buyer names on PP were of Asian decent and in an Asian part of CA. They also refuse to communicate or leave feedback for the seller. In my case anyway.

why is it any of your business what they are doing?

Agreed Slim Jim..........

I do same thing, buying over 2,000 feedbacks a month.. not selling on certain 5 accounts, just buying like that

There are many buyer accounts like this. They usually buy tons of items for overseas customers that are not available in their local markets. You should be fine. I have sold to a few. Although it looks unsafe at times, they have all been ok from me. But, yes, do not expect any contact or feedback from them. It's basically like a buying drone...lame.

Lol. Very true

[imjustme]

Believe it or not ...but not everyone is a seller. Some people just buy things. And there's even some Asian people who do that.

I have a buyers account only with 4000 fb.

Several with 1000 fb

Several with 500 fb.

I buy on ebay all the time, usually looking down newly listed and ending today on every site I am on in a day.

Writing down if I could make some money on it and then go to my buyers only accounts a grab items.

I have boxes piled at my store almost daily from ebay purchases.

This person is re selling like others to markets that cannot get these goods.

I re sell mine on ebay, etsy, amazon, CL or to customers who I have a list of things they are looking for to add to their collection.

Ebay partner buyers accounts I have sold to have 200,000 feedback on some accounts. All buyers fb.

[Dunersdunes]

So true sandy i do same thing.
For example. I only sell on ebay motors. Someone might list a carburator for a cr 250 dirtbike. Usually selling for 45.00.

I then use my buyer account. And buy it. Wait to pay. Then list same item on a seller account i have. And list the carb as a 200 blaster carb. And sells for 120.00.

And insert the person who won my auctions address as my ship to address. So thats 1 sale. Made 70.00. I do this 30 times a day or more. So buyer account gets lots of feedback. Just an example.

I know if I didn't ask? That is an awesome answer. One of the best i have ever received here. THANK YOU!

If you had a seller that would offer you the same thing at better prices to buy in qty. wouldn't you answer though? I offered them 25% discount if they bought 3 or 4 pcs. of an item that sells for $150 and no response.

No need for them to risk doing that.

Why? They could think it was a set up ( from ebay).

They do not need, they do not want, to vary a pratice that is a big earner for them.

They onsell what they buy. Their profit is far more than your offered discount.
