Question about eBay shop
 

Good morning guys! Since my account is suspended, I am looking for new options how to get back to business. I have noticed that there is a market place where you can purchase a new account but after some reading I found out that they must be aged little by little (correct me if I am wrong).

So my question is: is there such a service like renting an eBay shop? For example, I pay 10% of total sales for eBay shop owner who sells my stuff.

Thank you!

Danielle

What kind of volume are you talking about?

the big problem with other ebay sellers selling your stuff on their ebay store is the fact that for tax purposes, they are the ones who have to report gross income and will be responsible for applicable income tax

Hey!

I doubt you'll find such service, for such low %

The work that it takes is not worth it and also seller is taking majority of the risk, whilst you just count money and make sure your stock levels are good.


It doesn't take THAT much to age an account and to get back to selling quickly. Just have multiple accounts and spread the risk and volume over many accounts and before you know it, you have a nice and stable operations once again and you can then add accounts or start new ones yourself and you are not in a "hurry" anymore.

If you have patience and time is not an issue, I would even suggest you create your own accounts because you learn more by doing so. Once you are familiar with how stealth works and have a better understanding of yourself operating it, you can always purchase higher limit accounts, if needed.

It might look like it takes more time at the beginning, but if done correctly you'll save A LOT of time in the long run and not only will you have multiple high limit accounts, you have also spread your risk across multiple accounts- One of the most important aspects in my eyes.

Thank you for your answers! :)

In my real shop I sell electronics which price range from £100 to £300. The same products were listed on my eBay shop.

Haidukken, 10% was just an example. The fee could be negotiated. After reading a stealth guide, posts on forum I came to the conclusion that would be too difficult for me.... But I have never done this beside my real eBay shop, so you might be right :)

People can sell your items for.you, but they would want alot more than 10%.

Also, to avoid scams, atleast at first, they would need to have the items in there possession.

After all, you can't trust a stranger to send an iPhone you took payment for :)

We all know how small is the margin of electronics so 10% of total sale price + PayPal and eBay fees isn't that bad. And like I said 10% was just an example everything is negotiable. I just wanted to know if someone is offering such service :)

And sending the item to eBay shop owner sounds much more riskier because I would be risking to lose the item worth £100-300 and the shop owner could always make a refund and write a nice message to buyer, don't you think so? :)

I think the seller sells 10 items at £300 for you, sends you £2700 and keeps £300 for himself.

You don't send the items out as it's a scam, you have your £2.7k sitting in your bank.

The seller is then liable for refunding everyone. He thinks he made an easy £300 but is now £3k down.

It's a well known scam. I'm not suggesting your a scammer, just that your suggestion doesn't work for the reasons outlined above.

Re: Question about eBay shop
 

You got a point there :)

This is the reason why I am looking for reliable sellers. And I think it should be done in a different way. The seller sells the item for £300. Gives an info where to ship the item, I ship the item, give a tracking number. The seller keeps £30 + £45 (eBay and PayPal taxes) and send me £225. Now here is one missing part: how to make sure that the tracking number was of the real item not some kind of rubbish? maybe this could be solved by writing the buyer and asking how does he like his new item? Just thinking :)
