How long to aggressively list on a new account

[taerese]

If you bought a new account today. How long would you generally wait before you begin to list aggressively, like list 100 items in one day like no tomorrow.

This is my own routine..

Browse and bid day 1 - day 3.
List 1 or 2 items day 4 or 5
List up to 10 items in week 2
Up to 30 items in week 5
I max out 100 after 8 weeks.

100 items or a 100 sales? for me, three months slowly moving up, i may list 10 items and sell 1 or 2 per item slowly...then increase sales slowly. Depends if you are in it for longevity or a quick buck.

what is the value of your items you wanting to sell? are they high risk or vero items?

depends who you got it from and how old it is. I only ever had a problem with the instant bans after listing 1 item. If its already tried to list 1 item then I sell to the 100 items within 2 weeks

Listing early on the account isn't a bad thing, sometimes its actually beneficial to force an MC999 early on

What does it mean by forcing an MC999 early on?

Be careful with taking your time. I bought a high limit account and because I did not sell to the limit, they decrease my limit within 2 months. The account never received an increase.

That is 100% right.

You need to have a reason for high limit accounts. List items and price them super high just to have the space taken up.

If you get one of those white screen or no limit accounts, LIST like crazy until the limits are set a few days later. If you listed 500 items they will give you similar limits.... DONT SELL like that just list priced not to sell.

or they will suspend the account.
