Getting a perfect account
 

What would you consider the right steps are to do before you start to sell high risk items.

Could you please include how long all the steps should take.
Thank you

Yes, DONT DO IT, having said that I have a 7 month old account that I have listed and sold some Star Wars things on without hassles as I got feedback on those items as well. It is not something to do on new accounts, and beats, Microsoft, and beachbody things are not advisable until an account is well established and has history and good feedback.

You need to wait months before listing a high risk item. The account should be old and also have 30-40+ feedback if not higher. It is not hard to do this but it is important if you want your account to last more than a few days.

You need to run the account for a few months and get solid customer feedback before you can list high risk items.

Don't do it until you have alot of feedback and history with ebay and paypal.

What I usually do is auction off junk I have around the house for the first 3 months. A lot of the times I will end up paying more for shipping than the item auctioned off for, but idc since I'm building an account up. Once the 21 day paypal hold goes away (usually after 90 days) I slowly start listing riskier stuff.
