Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

I would have listed about 30 days ago.

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

I can understand your feelings.

You are safe to sell now. But make sure that you don't copy any description from any other sellers, don't sell high risk / branded items and sell 1 or 2 things that's not expensive.

Once sold make sure you immediately upload tracking.

Also, don't use stock photos. Upload your own (after cleaning them of course).

I've been listing the FIRST item as soon as I sign up to ebay. But ensuring it's a ridiculously low risk item and then just browsing websites etc to build cookies.

Works for me ? ... why people wait so many weeks is confusing.

After the first item, I wait a week or two to list the second item and beg the buyer for positive feedback on the first item if they don't voluntarily leave it before listing the second.

That begging part... you're not alone :pound:
But to list so soon, I'm just not confident enough to do it.
Now that eBay is in meltdown mode, are you still listing right away?

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

Admittedly I did this about 3-4 months ago. Haven't created any more stealths as I have a few working well so don't need any more.

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

Your first item is the most important. Heed advise here. Choose a low risk, cheap item to sell with your own photos.

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

Why don't you tell us how to avoid it? in my case 100% of the times they suspend me. I haven't been able to make any listings since September without being suspended. (Previously I have made more than 200 ebay accounts)

Please do not tell me in the stealth guide, since there I also found no mention of the new ebay policies.

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

guess what? after 41 days try to list my first item i've got this (it was used book auction)

are you sure @tinsoldier

the whole msg below

In order to keep eBay a safe and trustworthy environment, we regularly review marketplace activity. As part of our review, we've temporarily placed a selling hold on your account. This hold will prevent you from listing new items.

To remove the hold on your account, please contact a member of our customer service agents who will happy to assist.

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

So, you are using Google Voice to create your seller account?

That will always result in this type of hold.

Hopefully eBay doesn't start asking public database questions which they are doing more these days.

Your only option is to call in and try.

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

you are never safe to sell.

On some accounts i list an item 2 minutes after i created it and they are fine and some acounts after 1 month and they are getting suspended.

Especialy because of the fact that i do not know how your seller made the account it is impossible to say how high the risk is.

Also the fact that you list your first item with a vpn increases the chance of a ban by a lot.

Never buy accounts where there is not at least 1 visible item on them. they are absolutly worthless.

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

my seller account topic closed(fox20) so he can not help me.
i am outside from us.he create account with real phone but i can not call the ebay.i dont have phone.

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

List out your steps for help then

Re: i am afraid of being suspended!
 

Agree with tinsoldier ... I bought my first account on here, asked the seller many questions to learn. Then kept looking up old threads, kept on reading reading reading.

Then I started to create my own accounts. Not only will you save money, but you will learn and become more confident doing stealth.

Otherwise the stress of stealth simply isn't worth it. You will be throwing money away. They are only getting stricter.
