Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

Why are you listing a bracelet as a virtual product?

Virtual items and jewellery items are high risk items so yes you will most likely get a documents request and they will probably as for tracking numbers to.

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

what item can i list for 15 pound that is low risk ?

note - only customers know its virtual item....what ever low risk item i will list that doesnt have to be jewlerry

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

How do the customers know what they are buying but eBay doesn't?

I think that's the question you need to be asking yourself. :ranger:

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

Customers are likely to complain if you are not sending them something you are listing shaan. Do research - quite a few threads about things to sell (low end items)

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

Look at making your own website.:uk:

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

no

I HAVE OLD CUSTOMERS WHO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE BUYING,

its not about my customers who will buy is it safe to sell on ebay through a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ listing and paypal if limited would document case be easy to fight?

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

If you have old customers, sell to them directly via PayPal.

There is no "fighting" eBay/PayPal requesting documents. You either provide them or you don't, end of story.

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

This whole thing seems shady as hell...lol.

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

I agree....and the fact that he's so unwilling to take advice makes me wonder....

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

Why?

He's young and is not learning well.

He has already lost 5 accounts because of his business plan.

Eventually the penny will drop...LOL.

:brushteeth:

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

I am wondering what you are going to do if/when a stranger decides to bu the bracelet????

Imagine how annoyed they might get when you have to deal with them...

::brushteeth::

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

Maybe they get a picture of bracelet? a nice one maybe?? :noidea:

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

LOL i am surprised that EbayOrBust hasnt commented on this pic :p

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

No paypal please :FF:

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

lool guys

the whole reason i dont sell direct is when when they do request document by paypal people have their own vieews on here no one is telling me straight that is their anyway out from recieving high amounts direct to paypal lets say £2000 a month can i make a story up and give them any invoices if YES then i rather sell direct

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

because there is NO way!

Everything you are doing is risky.

You can provide paypal with an endless amount of documents, invoices, business plans or even make a story up but the fact still remains, that if paypal do not like your business model you are toast. :rip:

If you had a solid and great working model, you would not be sitting here in this dilemma to start with.

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

Just use multiple PayPal accounts.

Problem solved. :ranger:

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

Not in his case.

He burns thro' accounts which is why he is here.

He needs an entire overhaul of his business plan.

:brushteeth:

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

I didn't get that impression.

He said "when or if my PayPal account gets limited".

This implies he is thinking ahead. We all know our eventual demise is inevitable :ranger:.

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

Your opinion.

Enjoy it.

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

Think you must be the only one who didn't get that impression.

Stinks of rotten fish.

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

OP post makes no sense, as if virtual and existing customers, why can they not be directd to email or website, why pay ebay fees too. They can pay by paypal if you want though...

anyway following this ebay theory, then a cheap bracelet that is non branded would not be high risk anyway, go for a pencil sharpener if you prfer, the risk is someone telling tales on you eg. like a buyer who is not happy with their virtual product......but to cover yourself, why not get a number of $1 bracelets from usa wholesaler or even a discount store and list then for $15, if some idiot buys it then they can be sent one, if anyone asks for invoices you have them, keep the odd postal receipt at intervals in case you are asked for proofs, lower value does not require tracked service anyhow....

...heck maybe your real bracelets will go like crazy and you wont need the virtual stuff......

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

PP isn't stupid - they can see through made-up stories

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

I may be right, I may be wrong. My opinion is based on the OP's post---nothing more. I'm not making any assumptions about his business practices. Sure, I think his idea is stupid, but I'm not going to assume that he's shady just because he has a stupid idea. :nono:

Re: Ebay selling disguise
 

What if someone legit buys from you thinking its a bracelet?
