Starting BIG

[razvan4NBA]

I'm about to open and fully verify 5 ebay and paypal accounts all legit to sell: gold Jewellery from 1 to 30 grams each, new age music and LP records, antiques, pottery , porcelains, expensive vintage stuff (300-5000 euros) --> this is all i can find in my house and friends` house.

My question is what is the safe selling amount to stay under for the first 2 months....(like 1000 euros 1st month, 3000 for the 2nd on each account max) and how long to wait till I can list 50+ items per week .....should I start on each account with 2-3 items, wait for them to sell, receive feedback, then list 5 or 10...then list 50 or ?.... All items will be with buy it now prices + shipping costs.

I need to get rid of about 300+ items asap...plz help . thx

off topic: plz change my country flag to Romania..... I'm done with uk no bank accounts required here :P

What are you using to setup Romania account (just a side note)?

You should first start with some buying feedback, then selling slowly - 1 to 2 a week and wait for feedback. Don't immediately withdraw.

Aim for a long period to sell 300+ items at various amounts .

[razvan4NBA]

just entropay + landline

I was using your way in Uk to sell but on stealth accounts. here I can create 5 real accounts...that's why I can risk and push it abit and start selling from the 1st second.

Plus I will use real suppliers from Romania that can be verified easily ( No vero items)

[razvan4NBA]

also is it safe to have only 1 digit different on the ips?

[cortex]

1) dont you need a bank account to become verified before you can sell?
2) where will you withdraw the money to?

PS i may be coming to Oradea soon ;-)

[razvan4NBA]

you withdraw to your cc directly, you just verify the cc (expuse code)

check on google countries where you need only cc for paypal to be fully verified

Have you have read the forum to check what is going on with new accounts? Get yourself up to speed with the new rules for ebay as of 1st Nov. Buyers have been given more rights.

Please do not be so naive to think you will be OK with that selling plan AND listing from Romania. You are going to get scammers coming from everywhere to buy despite your good intentions. New accounts also get limits as to the numbers they can sell

DEAR GOD! You mean it gets WORSE?????

[razvan4NBA]

I dont mind geting limited as I can provide them with any documents they need ( real ones)...I just don't want to be seen as a risk for them which means sales volume? 500 euros max per account for the 1st month safe enough?

I know how to deal with scammers..... I'm having fun with them )

[cortex]

if YOU have multiple account then staying under the 500 limit should be ok

[razvan4NBA]

what if I make them all business accounts?

Hey Razfan4NBA,

If you would like to start even larger or show any interest, I have about 60-70 of the old LP Records from the 60-s through very early 80's. From the Beatles, Kiss, Journey etc..., you name it and it's probably there. Like the NBA or any other sports?? PM me.

Good Luck!

[cortex]

^^ PM me i may be interested...love the sun tzu lyrics BTW ;-)

let's recap : 5 business accounts with real info but all on 1 pc with 5 user accounts. They all have the potential of big sales volume as the item prices vary from 50 to 400 euros.

The businesses I register on ebay are all jewellery or gold shops that come from my accounting company and can get all the business info including IDs of employees which I use to set up the initial eb and pp account and then upgrade to business ( I know them personally and they wouldn't mind boosting their sales on ebay)

I never opened an eb/pp business account before so any input I would really appreciate.

I would like to know:

- how to start selling on them - number of listings / sales volume for the 1st and 2nd month

- In case of a limitation what kind of documents they ask? or if they call me can I pretend I am an employee of that company? .... 3 of them will have girl names on the file and they do not speak english at all....can they pass me on the phone and explain my business?

-Do they ask for supplier info for business accounts? I am selling gold jewellery crafted by the company itself but the raw gold is brought from Turkey. What about invoices? What kind of invoices they might ask?

PS: I still have about 6 UK stealth ebay and 2 paypal accounts unverified, would it be wise to change the info and use them to open the business accounts here in Romania ? They are about 4 months old with no activity

[razvan4NBA]

+ the isp host ip will be the same for all the accounts. Anyone got suspended because of this?

[rsot]

Do you dial-up into Romania to operate from there?

[razvan4NBA]

I am in Romania

[rsot]

Ah ok so no long-distance crap - good.

[razvan4NBA]

a lot of big questions still waiting to be answered heh
