I know you all may have already tried this on a brand new acct, maybe not?
I've been experimenting,not really interested in whether items sell, but how they are picking us out,and suspending us.
I have brought up feedback in 3 days from 0 to 23 ,then tried selling,and so far so good.
It used to be called feedback manipulation. Now,not so much.
Here's what I did.
1. I searched screen protector on eBay
2. I then narrowed it to auctions only
3. I then filtered by lowest price
4. I then began bidding starting at .01 cents, always free shipping
5. I bid up to like .22 cents,and some up to .5 cents
6. I looked at the sellers,making sure they were all different,as fb from the same will count as one,until a new week.
7. After a day,I went on my iPad,to check my results, I lost 1 auction,
But the ones I won, cost only $2.66
That's pretty good for 23 feedback!
I have tried this on 4 accts now,all stealth,in 4 different Zipcodes.
Note: I did the same thing last week on 5 new accts, I then waited one day,
Then I sold a low end item,on the one week old accts,
Then an item that I knew would bring 20-30 dollars,then 2 auctions with items I knew would bring 50-75 bucks.
I offered free shipping,and the auctions all started at .01 cents.
I then took one acct,and listed a montblanc 149 pen,started at one penny.
That auction is still up and ends in two days,it was a ten day auction.
So far, no takedowns.
I even purposely tried to get suspended,trying to see what hit the threshold
So far,no mc notices..
Good luck all.hope this enlightens some,making it easier for you through my
Trials. Peace.
