Best advise is dont sell it within 3 months

Use 3 months to really sell a lot of item items and then list it if its really your only way of selling the watch

Even then though with an item of that value it will be risky

[rsot]

Agree with james - even with 3 months...it will be tricky. You have to ramp up to that level OP...do you have other items to sell to get towards that high of a value?

[degsey69]

If you want your account to survive, season it with good sales and feedback for a number of months before trying to sell a high value risk item.

[murdered_by_ebay]

such items should not be sold at all unless the account sells this kind of items on a regular basis

the risk for ebay is high so that there is no way to rule out suspension even if the account is established

humm i see other seller with not so much feedback selling high price items ...

you need multiple accounts to do it right

[degsey69]

There is a difference between a business selling account and a personal one, I should think the business one that is verified has a greater selling price range than a personal one.

You can use it to sell it, but you need to sell consistently for 3 months.

I had a business account, sold around 3.5k value total, around 100 items, within a week it was suspended, they did payout after 60 days but you have to ramp up carefully, I would suggest no more than £1000 per month.

If you want to sell it you have to request to be a seller on the forum.

Signing up to be a seller in forum in order to sell a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ watch? ��

There are other places to sell a watch apart from ebay you know, if it's genuine.

If your account has just registered and there are no transactions, then you cannot sell your watch for such a high value. eBay will suspend your account immediately. However, you can also provide eBay with some documentation so they can unsuspend your account.

LOL, given the way this thread has played out I can't see you getting accepted as an account seller any time soon.

then more experience and work is needed

[Jnycat]

Yeah, I have some advise for you. Do not sell it on ebay! They will MC011 your account and freeze your funds right before you get paid. I provided all the requested docs and they still banned my account.
I eventually got paid several months and dozens of calls later.
It seems like it's to big of a liability for ebay to let personal accounts sell high ticket items.
At least that's the feeling I walked away with after talking to ****loads of reps.
Good luck mate!

[humungouswhat]

Thankssss mate appreciated
