Default How do i play it safe?

Hi, i am going to move over to a stealth account which i made last year.

It still works but has 0 feedback.

It is a year old, what would happen if i suddenly list a few low risk items? Will i get banned immediately?

Difficult to predict 100% - these days it could be. A lot depends on setup and operation.

When you say "it still works", what did you do? Only login?

Yep, i have logged in a few times this month to browse for cookies etc.

Browse as much as you can. List your first item as "used". Best of luck!

Yep, the browsing helps . Then try to list something that matches the browsing.

Nice one lads. Yeah, usually i list an item as 'for parts or not working' as this tends to work for me. Listing a 'used' item is also safe

I just need to do a few more days of browsing, then i shall start listing multiple items gradually.

Yes, or "never opened". You can bid and watch items also. List the first low risk item, wait for feedback and relist. Repeat and increase the number of active listings. Slow and steady.

I thought 'never opened' is risky right? Because that can be seen as new i believe.

If it works, that's amazing

I use item condition "used" and in the description I write "never opened". No issues and the item is non branded low risk.

Definitely feels safer with the non-branded low risk aspect
