New stealth accounts getting suspended

[Fishermanas]

Hello stealthers,

I'm having issue with most of my new eBay Stealth accounts getting suspended after a month or two and I do not understand what might go wrong. I need your advice guys...

Setup:
*VMware + windows 7
*Google chrome portable + kill switch extension (to avoid IP leak) + canvas defender (fingerprints do not match)
*New IP's using windows VPN or SIM USB modem (IP's are fresh and static, non data center IP)
*New SIM + new gmail + new registration address
*NAME/SURENAME and DOB. In total I got 3 different persons that I use for all of acounts
*Everytime before start I check my IP using HTML startup page.

Account timeline:
Day 1. Setup my account using name/surename dob email, phone number and browse a little.
Day 3. Verify my email and phone number.
Day 3 to Day 30. Just browsing on ebay add some stuff to cart, message few sellers with questions and ect.
Day 30. List my first item from home. Something below 20USD price, for example: skiing gloves, knee pads, Rechargeable AAA batteries, and ect.. (images cleaned with batch purifier). And then keep browsing for 3-5 days
Day 35. 2nd listing
Day 38. 3rd listing. (limits maxed out). Keep browsing for 30 days more.
Day 68. Request for limit increase via CS. Usually they increase easily but sometimes they ask standart questions and they increase my limits up to 10items. Then I max out these limits by listing max 1 item per day. (item from my home) Still keep browsing.
Sometimes I receive "permanent" suspension, but most of the times it's possible to remove it just by contacting CS and answering their questions.
Day 98. I ask for another limit increase via CS. Sometimes they transfer me offline and ask me the same questions, I answer them and eventualy they increase my limits to 50 or more. Then I post a few more items from my home and after I start posting aliexpress stuff. I choose something cheap/low risk, without variations/non brands/non electronics. (listing 1 item per day, sometimes 2, but not more)

Eventually at some point I get suspended once again without any chance removing it. Sometimes I get to sell an item or few which gets delivered without any issues.

In conclusion. Some of my accounts succeed to "live" for a year or half and make some cash, but the rest of them got shut down in a month or two.
For statistics: since 2020 I have created 12 accounts using my method.
2 of them were active for 2 years and made some nice cash.
7 closed in month or two.
4 still active with low limits.

I would be grateful if somebody could notice a "crack" in my method.
Critics and answers are welcomed!
Thanks in advance

this is because you do not understand the logic of ebay. they want to see new members make $$$ for them

if you want to sell you have to start actively doing so instead of selling an item every few weeks

or alternatively if you can not sell a lot you should start buying a lot while only selling a few items. the purchases should be PHYSICAL items delivered to your address and it should be many

ebay is all about the money , if you are a new member with a seller account you either make money for them or you are at an acute risk of suspension

ebay would tolerate new members who do not make money for them only if those members are usual buyers with no seller account

[Fishermanas]

Thanks for the replay murdered_by_ebay.
I get your point which is logical. Wouldn't there be an issue if a 1-2 months old account starts dropshipping aliexpress products and make many sales?
Iv'e hear that you need to build up trust before increasing sales.

[murdered_by_ebay]

a new account should not do any drop shipping at all and should not sell high risk items

Correct, noticing same patterns

[DENDEN76]

Theres local suppliers too...what is your item location and registration location?

Are you using payoneer linking method?

[Fishermanas]

Thanks for replay DENDEN76,

At the start my registration location and item location is the same (Lithuania), later on when I start listing aliexpress stuff, I still keep item location as my local, but after some time I start changing it to Hong Kong or China.
I usually get suspended when my registration location and item location matches.

What is "payoneer linking method" , never heard of it before?

[DENDEN76]

Non MP accounts have to use payoneer and link it to Ebay for verification.

How about trying a local US supplier and see how it goes

[Fishermanas]

I use other online banks like monese, revolut and ect. I use different IBANS all the time and link them to accounts.
I'm not located in the US :/

[DENDEN76]

Yes but they might be more lenient with listings located in the US

[Fishermanas]

Not sure about it. There are may fresh sellers with different location than US.
I understand what your are trying to say, but I wouldn't be able to list items located in US since my registration address is different

[DENDEN76]

Are you selling similar products across accounts?
Do you use any listing and monitoring software?

[Fishermanas]

No, I always choose different low risk categories across accounts.
I don't use any softwares, all is done manualy.

[x2ruff4u]

Been doing this long enough and your method is not wrong. It's only around holidays this happens and it's utterly sickening they ban accounts for any reason.

[0nelove]

I think it may be the drop shipping that is your problem
But I would think after 3 months a account should be solid.

[Fishermanas]

x2ruff4u thanks for the replay.

Does it also happen to you quite often?
I'm asking this, because it happens for me and I do not know what is the issue. I try asking the CS, but they never explain the reason and states that it's a permanent ban.
Just wondering if I'm the only one here, maybe my name and surename, DOB is blacklisted somehow.

way to test would be to avoid the use of that name/surnamed/dob
