Does Not logging into a account raise red flags
 

If I have a account(s) I've made, and I don't log into the account for a while...Will it raise red flags? Ebay and Pay Pal on this

no they will not raise any flags especially new ones as remember you need to think as if you are just starting fresh. You are not selling everyday but browsing sometimes or buying sometimes or selling sometimes just like if you are starting new.

It is good to age accounts but as to browse through ebay on the accounts every once in a while.

Baloch could you please give me your opinion?

Let's say I bought account from someone here should I wait at least a week before I start selling on this account. Also how much browsing history should I practice?

All my accounts are fine and I just browse the help section, place bids on stuff I know I wont win, search things I like, do this once or twice in the first week for a hr on new accounts and then let them sit. All mine are good. I just have a big order of goods coming in and, I am wondering how things are going to go on the accounts that have been sitting for 6 months at a rip.

stanislav the above advice is good. When you have a new account then it is good to wait a week before you start listing anything.

The first week just browse around every now and then. You do not need to do it for an hour but just like 10-15 mins. It is helpful to browse the sections you are going to be selling on.

The second week list 1 item and make sure the sale is fully complete from shipping to receiving feedback. You should also buy cheap items ($0.99) to increase your feedback at this time to allow ebay to notice that you are just like any new ebayer. Make sure you do not buy 10 items in one day but 1 or 2 per day. Cause if you buy too many in one day then ebay will assume you are just there to increase feedback and a suspension can occur.

Once your first sale is complete and you bought a few things and feedback is about 10 then start listing your items.

Hope that helps as that is exactly how I do things. :canada:

When you log in, are you going to 'do' anything? Or just surf around?

That should not cause problems.

But logging into a 'dormant' paypal account & making a transaction will. :ranger:

I will surf first. I just got at least 10 accounts that don't get logged into for months.

I haven't had any problems with this.. I've left accounts unlogged in for months upon months. But I always maintain user profiles so the cookies are waiting there for me...
