New account advice ?
 

Hi Folks,
Well the sado masichist in me is still trying to get my main account reinstated,
but in the meantime I have ofcourse created a new account, second
attempt, first one lasted a few days then I got the 'abusing ebay' notice, prob
because I used a proxy server. They'll be wanting a dna sample next.
Anyway, losing my (7 year old)account has been quite a blow, I had about 2k in sales each week, down to nothing overnight. Yet funnilly enough my bills and mortgage are all still due.. :p
So, can anyone advise how to play this ? I know I can't just list a few grands worth of stuff, but building it up slowly means reduced income for a while.
I guess the items I want to sell are probably classed as high risk, so how slowly should I introduce them ? Bearing in mind the two obvious points, that I need to be earning asap, but dont want to blow the account too soon.
Or should I be aiming at multiple accounts all going slowly and adding up to a nice total ?

Multiple accounts working on them slowly works well.

Also don't use any other proxy but AOL Browser proxy. Most other proxies don't work with eBay.

Thanks aspkin, will try that then. :)
I was actually using Tor, I was able to set the exit node to the location I wanted, and
run multiple tests, none of which detected it as a proxy, so I was pleased. Until I realised
that if I was using it for this purpose, probably so were more than a few other people, and the IP has mostly likely been flagged.
Oh well, you live and learn.
