Forum

So were officially at New Years, anyone created an account say from the 25th through now that has been up and running selling over the past week? Good feedback? No ID verification?

i have created quite a few accounts and had no problems been selling ipods laptops etc on new accounts with no verification problems dont know what u guys are talkin about

100% stealth? Real or ⊗⊗⊗⊗ address? Real name or is everything just made up? How long have the accounts been active and how much feedback do you have? I am putting together some info for everyone so please post what you have.

Also, are you having to deal with the 21 day hold?

Happy New Year to everyone :) and Hello ^_^

It's first time I'm posting ( Found this forum today, it saved my life as for now, lol )

Anyone who could answer my question or help me through this case? I'm totally lost and confused as well.. I'm newbie in eBay but got spanked quickly..

I registered an account - After awhile I listed an item(s) (Burberry scarves)
I used one of my photos and for another listing I used Burberry pictures (Copyright, which I didn't know what illegal to use, how silly of me)
Then eBay removed my items - Reason I was breaking their trademark rules or policies.
I was restricted for 7 days. In the mean time I contacted eBay live help, and I've been told why I got restricted, and I've been told how I can relist again..
After 7 days I'm now aloud to relist.. and I had to take a test/survey? And then I started to relist again... 3-4 items, but 1-2 hrs within each item..
Now, this time I used my own photos.. but got SUSPENDED? and the reason was.. " Abusing Ebay "?
I think it's funny, and I don't know what's the truth behind doors yet..
It's like throwing a bomb on my house - and I immediately contacted eBay costumer service , and they sent me an e-mail, in fact, 4 e-mails alike! with the exactly answer..
I didn't expect that, I was disappointed and starting to get mad with eBay..
Then eBay calls my bf while he's at work.. They want him to confirm - Bad timing - so my bf is calling eBay the next day by Phone .. After confirming , a staff said the account is no longer Suspended.. my Bf tries to log in, but it doesn't work.. then he calls again, and meet another staff, and this time it's still Suspended, and they're asking for my bf's address..
He gave them the exactly information + the address linked in eBay, but as my bf just moved from Las vegas to another state because of his privacy which I think is none of eBays business to know. The new address is now on papers, and the old in eBay data base. So he couldn't do anything.
Staff even said straight forward that it's not possible to move so suddenly (Didn't believe my bf) then he got upset with eBay costumer support. When is it not legal to move to another state? Should there be any DATE AND TIME for that? This is also Privacy, eBay doesn't have to know what's happening in our lives!

Anyone who can tell me, what to do now? And how can I do further in the future with eBay?
I want to sell for the first time on eBay, but it has started out dramatic..

Right now I'm just exhausted and annoyed with eBay.. I don't know what to do, or not to do..

Last question : about Vero

is Burberry a high risk? Should I contact Burberry factory?
Awhile ago I taked with a staff eBay Live help and told me as long as I have my own pictures, own description.. start slow, and build up.. then I'd be Okay?

But I've been reading topics on the forum and there's still risk and a lot of trouble? How difficult and complicated is this! Oh dear..

Please start a new post with this. This wasnt the original point behind the OP and you should get more responses posting a new one.

I want to know what the OP is asking too, because I don't want to end up wasting a account just to get this new suspension.

Looking for people who have created accounts in the past week and they are up and selling stealth. Let us know if you are using ⊗⊗⊗⊗ or real addresses as well, that seems to be a big possible factor right now.

Question - when do you get hit with this verification? when you create the seller account or when you actually list an item for sale?

Wow, I don't know what you guys are doing wrong, but I'm selling across 80+ eBay accounts and have created about a dozen new ones in the past week, without any problems at all.

I believe it was a holiday issue, This week no problems with purchased accounts.

From what I have heard it was when new items were listed. It has nothing to do with creating an account. Just don't create an account tonight and immiediately list an iphone for sale.

Are they 100% stealth? Are they real or ⊗⊗⊗⊗ addresses? Also what have you listed and do you have any feedback?

hey vigilantex69 don't go around throwing subliminals at me ahahahah

anyways I have made a stealth account on the 29th of dec. listed a gang of broken ipods and new ones made hundreds of dollars and its been fine. going to make $600 this week...... not bad for a 18 year old

So they were fully stealth accounts? With bogus addresses?

ya bogus everything lol.......... everything is fine unless you dont update ur info and phone number or sell something very high risk...

how many feedback you have before you list your first item?

What do you mean update your info?

Has everything been ok for people starting new accounts lately? Does it seem like this might have just been a holiday thing?

ya my accounts have been fine bro...

Sounds good man I have a feeling you and I seem to have had the same problems.

ya..... its just about being careful..... sometimes i seem to forget what user account im logged into and check fb and then get banned or I check other banned emails lol so its basically just be careful of what you are surfing on the web, then you are fine....
