Is it possible?
 

Hey,
I opened a new eBay account and bought like 20+ Ebook for feedback.
After a day i got my seller limits suspension,
Is it possible to get banned from buying Ebooks?

Re: Is it possible?
 

Absolutely yes!

That is seen as feedback manipulation from eBay.

Re: Is it possible?
 

Exactly yanov you probably got banned for doing exactly what ebay realised you were doing, buying to create your own feedback, people have done that before you and ebay have got extremely good at recognising the signs!

Re: Is it possible?
 

Buyers feedback is rubish anyways....
Make no sense at all.

Re: Is it possible?
 

Buying cheap stuff is a know feedback manipulation and will result in a permanent suspension. Moreover, buyer feedbacks are useless. I suggest selling something popular like generic iphone cases for a low price, even at a loss, just to make legit seller feedbacks.

Re: Is it possible?
 

Feedback is crap

Good photos, good description a good price wins

Re: Is it possible?
 

For people who know how ebay works, feedback is nothing, but for newbie buyers feedbacks are very important, as they are afraid that low feedback means the seller is not trustworthy. They just don't know that they can return anything for any reason in case of any issues.

Re: Is it possible?
 

Wonderful advice by you again.....build up a new accounts feedback by selling iphone products.........zero risk there. :rolleyes:

Re: Is it possible?
 

Who knows how ebay works? I say 99.9% of buyers have no clue of which I am 1 of the 99 that does not have a clue.

Re: Is it possible?
 

I just set up a new stealth and listed my first item, but I don't see my selling limits yet? would I be hit on my next listing for $0/0 limits? any experience?

Re: Is it possible?
 

Got to your all selling link in my ebay its there

Re: Is it possible?
 

I already checked my All selling, its not there

Re: Is it possible?
 

That happens but not often try and list something

Re: Is it possible?
 

Yes I listed my first item and its up for sale. Should I try to list another item or wait till the 5 day auction ends.. because I asked the livechat rep and she said it should show up on your next listing or on revision.
So I revised my item but it didn't show, so thats why I was thinking I might get hit with a $0/0 next time...

Re: Is it possible?
 

What country are you in?

If you had stated limits such as 5 or 10 it is ok to list to those limits especially if you are running auctions IF YOU ARE NOT SELLING RISKY ITEMS.

Re: Is it possible?
 

Yankee its a brand new account

Re: Is it possible?
 

Good call danshan.
I will clarify this. List 5 or ten items. Your limits should show. If they don't, there is ways of testing those limits but it can be risky.

He also stated live chat, so I am assuming he is not in the USA.

Re: Is it possible?
 

Im from USA. and its a brand new seller account. I just listed my first listing this morning, but just before you click on 'list your item' you can sometimes see a livechat or call on the top of the page.

Re: Is it possible?
 

Live chat in the USA?

Re: Is it possible?
 

Hell no not for a few years and if you list five or ten items you better be mc999 ready

Re: Is it possible?
 

Yea, I don't think he is in the USA. Not sure why members say they are when they are not.

I don't have any issues listing 5 or 10 items. That is how I get my limits increased in a week or less.

Re: Is it possible?
 

Im not going to start we will agree to disagree

Re: Is it possible?
 

This is a 5 day old account selling "lots" of five bundled items in the sporting goods category. Limits started at 10-$1000


Your February selling activity
Items Amount
You have sold 4 $418.51

You have listed (active) 13 $1,214.48

You can list 13 $367.01

Out of 30 Out of $2,000.00

Re: Is it possible?
 

Livechat is available sometimes for new USA sellers on their first item. You only see it on the top of the selling page where there used to be a help colum before.I also read about it here on this forum before so I wasn't surprised when I saw it today. Oh and I AM from the US.
So does anyone else have any idea what to do next as I am not going to listing 5-6 items straight off on a new seller account.
But what I am asking is has anyone had any such experience like this where you didn't see your selling limits on your first item?

Re: Is it possible?
 

Use that live chat low chance of harm coming from that. I also would try listing 1 item and see if it shows up there. I have never had the double zeros do i dont know what it looks like.

Re: Is it possible?
 

sarah74, search the forum, there is tons of people who have had this happen. Usually the limits show at 5 or 10 items if not after the first item or sometimes a few days later.

Sometimes you get no limits and you can test that by listing a fixed price item with a quantity of 50 or 100 but that is vary rare and this can cause you to have to call in.

Re: Is it possible?
 

Yankee quit telling people to read the forum if they did 99 percent of the conversations would not exist and than what would i do all day except pick on people

Re: Is it possible?
 

True!
always can join in the chat, LOL

Re: Is it possible?
 

You have my sincere apology!
I thought live chat did not exist at all in the USA these days.

Re: Is it possible?
 

I never seen it and of course im not looking for it i would rather find an utility bill than talk to ebay or pp
