3) IP very much matters.
Create account with MOBILE IP (just buy data with above sim and tether to laptop). wait a while, surf around - all with that IP. Create first 2 listings (low USD amounts) with this IP. You may or may not get "reactivate" but you will 99% pass. I've NEVER failed the questions. Just make sure you use this MOBILE IP for all your browsing/listing (and the chat to get the re-activation done) ... if you slip up ONCE, the account is toast. I tested this. I surfed and listed 1 item with mobile, then a regular VPN and boom -> account is gone.

So in summary: create, surf and list TWO items with MOBILE IP. After the first 2 items are sold and shipped, you can switch to a regular VPN to keep accounts separated.

Thanks for you advise. Just a few questions..
Does name matter? I'm asking because I usually use random name for account creation then change to real once I'm sure that there is no suspension from the new account. What about bank account? Also, I only add bank account once I'm sure the account is solid. Does bank account matter too?

I think firefox has too much security for ebay. Even though firefox is the most recommended for stealth. I think firefox is too stealth. I’m not sure but I think firefox blocks some of ebay finger printers and you get flagged. I would only use firefox for some aged accounts not for brand new accounts.

I created 10 seller accounts yesterday with chrome and all survived the first listing on mobile hotspot

1. turned individual acc to business after only 3 sales
2. listed 3rd item a vero item
3. after 18 sales, (individual acc) listed 6th item, value of all items at sale over £250 and this triggered the red flag, happened just now. also i have sent my email to a costumer in regards with an faulty item, maybe that is a trigger too

happened to chrome and firefox, on desktop, hotspot from mobile.

hope this helps
