Default Ready to sell...

My account just got 2 months old. Ive done browsing on it here and there, has 0 feedback still. Im thinking about listing a high risk item tonight should i or should i not. Id list one and let the account cool off after the sale.

I was going to buy two watches for about 12.00 first. Then sell two non high risk items. Let the account cool then sell the high risk item. Will that work?

There's no way to predict if it will work or not.

It's best to start out with cheap items and build feedback before you try selling higher risk items.

It just nuts. The account I made back in Feb when I joined this site I bought a basketball card then let sit till about june. Hoped on the account and sold a dvd set on purpose about the most high risk you can get and it sold and was fine. If your account is flagged for some reason from the get is it only a matter of time till they pop it ?

I would have kept making small purchases throughout the time. Now, I am not saying that 100% you will fail but based on my own experience (and Lakeman who is VERY skilled), odds are not in your favour. Best recommendation that I would make - IF you abso-fugging-lutely want to sell a high risk item - is spend the week buying and selling low stuff to get feedback i.e. Look busy shrug.

It might be nuts but if you list a high risk product you are going to get looked at

"Who are you?"
"Is this genuine?"
"Has this character been active?"

"Let's not take a chance - pull the plug on him - we don't make any money out of him anyway"

Get it?

It's called high risk because it's -----high risk

Yes. You dont need feedback on ebay to make the sale. I have done this many times. For the others thank you for the advice!!
