1p Auctions for Feedback

[testdog]

I've seen lots of eBay members posting such auctions, with a thousand plus feedback and years of membership on eBay. In their description they clearly state that they are doing this for feedback. How come eBay allows this and they don't get hurt ?

[NoneOther]

Many things e/b seemingly allow sellers to do which is in breach of their own policies is a mystery.

The only thing I would say is just because others do it personally I would never ever try it.

It's an unnecessary risk that should be avoided on stealth accounts at all costs.

STAYING UNDER THE RADAR is a key element of successful stealth.

Never give e/b a reason to look more closely at how you run your accounts.

Just because they get away with it does not mean you will - dont follow their lead, they may have other ins with eB...or eB just doesnt notice them...or etc.

I've already tried it 1-2 times but will never do again

I had my account closed for 30 days cause I sold feedback and in my title it said "Digital photo of..... PRIVATE feedback will be left" and cause I had the word feedback in the title they closed out my account for 1 month so there goes my profits for 30 days.

You just write in your auctions. "once you pay and leave us positive feedback our store system will leave you positive feedback in return" and set up your account so that people can only make 1 bid on it and not bid on all your stuff and set it up so they can only bid once every 10 days on it also. Cause most people bid on 10 of them and you only get 1 feedback that counts for that. Hope this helps. And don't do what I did. Sell digital pictures, or wall paper, don't sell ebooks cause so many idiots out there who dont know wtf an EBOOK IS!!!!!! And also what I do is I limit the users to USA users when doing these at 1 penny so it counts as 400 feedback and insert a random tracking number so its uploaded at 90%

I would not advise this as a long term plan...

My 5 star rating was 4.7, for my item and shipping 4.5 due to over seas and customs I was so mad!

Why not advise it for long term plan?

[Packattack12]

Just like rsot said above, just because you know people that got away with it and if you got away with it a few times, is it really worth it to lose your account over a couple positive feedbacks? Once ebay stumbles across this account you can guarantee it will be shut down immediately.

Oh cause I called up ebay they said I can keep selling it just can't put the word "Feedback" in the title. Cause if I don't do this, they'll limit my account if I drop at 4.5 thanks to these people!

Purpose of the forum is to assist in the creation of long term accounts that manage to NOT be flagged by ebay.

WTFudge wants to let ebay take one month of profits because a listing was checked.

Not me.

[rsot]

And there are so many other nice ways to get feedback.

[GreenBean]

rsot is on point tonight.

[GhostWhoWalks]

So many other ways of getting feedback? Selling stuff under $1 is the only way I know of.

GB - how are you? yeah I know long term but those people from your country complain about shipping taking 1 month due to customs.

[oompaloompa]

you can buy under $1 stuff, but not dozens, maybe mix in a couple or it is obvious, there is a method to buy bigger stuff and get it to you but hit and miss...

I would advise not to buy the 0.01 stuff that has fee-dback or some crazy hint in the title

I've learnt the hardway that just beause people can do it..or even you can and you get away with it it's not worth it..ebay and paypal like none other said are pretty odd that sometimes they allow people to do this, perhaps for financial gain..who knows. The fact of the matter is if anyone should troll you or report your account or ebay look over it.they'll see you bought ⊗⊗⊗⊗ feedback and the consequences won't be good.
I've always seen it this way- if your honest, not a scammer and a good seller why not just get natural honest feedback? And even my accounts I have aged fast..i just buy 20p items like simcards and of course it's easy quick feedback both ways
