Does Auctiva raise flags on new sellers' accounts
 

Hi i was wondering if auctiva gets you flagged cause i got a new account going and sold on ebay for about a week now with it and have a verfied paypal on it and i used a wifi ip but i hate haveing to drive and park to log in and sale so i want to use auctiva so i can list at home andnot worry about ip but i dont want to get banned cause it seemed last time i used auctiva i did it on a new account starting off and i got banned for absueing ebay and i dont want to make the same mistake twice.

I know like if u have let says 25 items listed on ebay which u can see by the way by doing a search by seller all the items listed as soon as u sign up and link auctiva to ur ebay account all your items will vanish and only way to view them is in Text Formatt which is when ebays monleys are looking over your auctions and re approveing them for listing.

so if u guys think it will be ok for me to use auctive at this point just lmk thanks

What did you list when you listed through Auctiva on a new account? It happened to me when I listed brand name items through Auctiva with a '0 feedback' account. Otherwise you're fine. I listed 21 items on a brand new account a few days ago and they're all good.

just dvds which i listed fine through ebay with no problems so i dont see why going through autiva would be any diffrent

Don't drive somewhere. Just get a landline if you don't have one. Then get some cheap dialup ISPs or if one has a huge amount of phone numbers that are local to you, you can use one.

always sign up for a new auctiva account when u start using for ebay.. never use an account from a suspended ebay one.. if account is new let it age one+ month preferably 3+months before u actually get full potential... i have listed 50+ items through auctiva in a single post with no problems on a 3+ month account..

Yeah its a new auctiva account cause i havent used them in months and only reason i use them is the ip issue cause out away from home now and dont have the opition of getting new ips like when i was at home i would just change the mac address on my router. I listed 10 items with auctiva and im now under review cause so far the listings do not show up in search by seller like when i list stright from ebay they would show up with in a few mins so lets hope I am not
banned.

Don't start listing VERO items.

If you sell VERO items when can you start listing them? I see all the advice is always "DON'T LIST VERO ITEMS!!" which to some extent I understand...but what if that's what you sell on eBay?? Can you never list them? What do the experts recommend?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

HI< LOL...:)

WELL-- You just gotta be CAREFUL.. I'd say nowadays..with all the new rules--list maybe 15 household;/generic items, and throw in 1 vero---thats the only way to be safe..
Good Luck:)

What are vero items exactly? Everything has brand names on items nowadays.

I used auctiva on 7 accounts and did not have a problem with auctiva taking down any of those accounts.

I did list slow and different times and spread it out and did not list high end items or any vero items right off.

Slow and patient and you will be ok.

Get greedy and lose your patience and it will toss red flags all over the place.

I listed a vero item last night on a new account and it listed instantly then i listed another through auctiva then it didnt show up for like 7 hours so it went under ebays mircoscope just because i listed through auctiva

The listing not showing up doesn't mean it goes under eBay's microscope. eBay has too many listings to check out each and every one of them.

ebay auto flags vero items through auction or buy now discriptions. one word can set off a flag. im sure they dont bother if there busy. personaly its too much hastle.

Yeah i found away around it listing through ebay i figerd out what i was doing to trigger the flag now i can list instanly w/o no problems but before i would list and items would never show up and about a hour later i would get a call from a ebay monkey and if i didnt answare they would instaly ban me.

With auctiva as soon as you sign up and get the token any new and even listed listings will not show up under the search by seller tab.

auctivas nice and all but after u use it awhile w/o getting banned by ebay your listings will start showing up as soon as u list them.

I have several brand new authentic Coach handbags that I bought from a department store at a good price and now want to list on ebay. My account is about 1 year old and has 30+ feedback, from selling generic low priced items. Is that Ok for me to list these Coach handbags, once at a time, without being flagged?

I would recommend selling them with details that it is authentic in the title with pics of the receipt and ideally tags in the listing.... I did this with some prada bags on an account that was about 8 months with no problems personally

I would like to use AUCTIVA for high risk high priced items(not very or designer). The reason is for the scrolling auction feature that will allow others to see my other auctions. No problem listing many items in the last few months. It is an aged pre07 acct.

Is this safe? Will this raise red flags, any updates from users lately.

Scrolling Gallery

Use our attractive scrolling gallery to market your other items on each listing. Our scrolling gallery displays 14 items at a time and favors items that are ending nearest the time of the item being viewed. Best of all, the scrolling gallery is auto-appended to your listings and completely customizable.

It is a great way to showcase your other items for sale!

Its listed directly on the webpage.

That doesnt add anythink to the thread, telling me you use another piece of software. Now if you would tell which software and why, then something would be gained to the community.

Auctiva has its own specific scrolling gallery. If you are in Auctiva and click to disable it, Auctiva gives you a scary notice saying that doing so will make Auctiva go bankrupt and they'll have to charge money for its services.

You can also insert the gallery into your listing with just some HTML code without listing through Auctiva.

You can also use different services for scrolling galleries, though Auctiva has its own scrolling gallery.

So one more time...

If you use auctiva with authorize.net and a merchant account. Can eBay see your information?
