Linked Through Images?

guangxipku · #1 09-25-2014

Recently I got a lot of accounts suspended for MC999 when selling or after something sold. These are US accounts. They all run well in the past.
I think that because the images of the products.
I took my own photos for the products, but for running too many eBay accounts, I can't re-take photos for every accounts, so I just deleted the EXIF info , resized the images.
But I think that's not enough. when we do google image search, even with different image size we can get exact the "same" images. So I think ebay do know the "same" images even through EXIF info deleted and RE-SIZED.
Is there any easy way to EDIT the same image and let eBay radar think they're different images?
Thanks!

Need new pictures per account

I know that new pictures are the best.
But I run about 10 accounts everyday (for I don't want to pay ebay fees, wo~~~~, never paid ebay fees and the accounts won't last long), really can't take photos for each accounts.
Is there any easy way to edit the photos to avoid eBay radar? Like using Photoshops or other tools to edit the photo?
Thanks all!

Pay your eBay fees and you may find your accounts last longer.

The forum is not hear to help people that abuse the system and never bother to pay their sellers fees.

You can be linked via images for sure - could be a problem with your product too...

Exif works.

Taking the time to take a few pictures has literally been the reason why some of my accounts are still running. EBay reps told me so on a couple of different occasions.

Thanks for that!
Actually in the past I paid eBay fees but the accounts won't last long. But thanks for that. I will do that.

Logic is baffling.

Just summarized to ask questions; did you,
1. rename the images or used the same names?
2. clean image info using a separate user account for each corresponding eBay or just cleaned together and reused?

The reason I am asking this is because it is very doubtful that images can link you if you did it right.
