EBooks for getting back on eBay
 

I have not found a thread dedicated to just discussing the eBooks and package deals some one can use to get back on eBay:confused: . There are a few available online and a few threads here touch on to a couple of them. However, I am hoping that we can condense all of our evaluations, opinions and trials with these sources here in one thread.

I am personally familiar with these listed below and would like to hear your thoughts on them or any others.

1. Auction Again-pdf 26 pages
2. EBAY RePLAY-.exe 191 pages w/free programs
3. How to eBay again-.exe 150+ pages
4. troydes/bashar -premade accounts under anothers name

I will be glad :) to expound on any of these for which I have tried; but to get things started I want to give a THUMPS-UP to one of them that I feel is the most informative, honest and has real personable quick support.

stealthdog,

I have seen you promoting this book now on a few forums as far as in Austraila, im sure that you have something to do with this book and this is your way of promoting it.

Why would one want to purchase any ebay book when you have all the advice and help on this forum. Unless their is something in that book or those books that has not been covered and if thats the case why dont you share it with everyone like Aspkin, Modee, freeballing and co.. who take time out to help eveyone.

This is the best package around on how to get back on ebay and is value for money as its free, so a big thanks to all those that hve made this forum what it is today!!

The more info the better
 

I agree with you, Aspkin is the best forum I have seen in regards to eBay information. However alot of what is spoken here are opinions and opinions are of very little help when you need facts. Also I feel there is more that is necessary to know than is covered here, though aspkin has plenty of excellent information. Plus the fact that a long list of resources as well as free programs come with the eBook, EBAY REPLAY, that you are not going to find in a forum.

I came to this forum looking for answers, as were and still are many more. I have bought a few different publications on line and did try them but was met with little success. The ebook I refer to absolutely did what I needed. I thought that when someone found something that worked they shared it with others. But how am I to share what took 180 pages of research by them. Best to let you read it yourself. Or are you so tight pursed that you won't invest in your own business.

I have read about other eBooks on this forum...are they being plugged too.
And I am curious princess; if aspkin has everything you need, why are you going and reading all the forums (even to Austraila) about eBay suspensions?:eek: I think because you want all the information you can get. Like we all do! Have you even looked at the free 5 chapters of Ebay Replay? Any clue what they can teach you...or do you already know all there is to know.

I suppose I can see how you might think I am "promoting" this out of my own self interest...but even if I were (which I am not!) how does that hurt you or anyone else. People need a point in a direction that can help...but I guess we can all just read forums for ALLTHE ANSWERS WE NEED!!! Fact is there is a depth of knowledge that cannot be reached through chit-chat on a forum...hence "The Book". To detour people away from something that cost something reflects more about what type of person you are rather than the type of information available.

So thank you for your post, but like most forums...it seems many people like yourself look for ways to verbally assault someone they know nothing about. I asked for unbiased input about different guides, ebooks and publications so that everyone could wiegh their options....got anything to share about that? :confused:

From what I read, EBAY REPLAY. The free chapters I read are really informative. And the way it's layed out is kind of nice. It's a good book. I just wish there was an affiliate program so I could promote it with more passion. :)

It's a good book though.

I agree, it is a good ebook with good links. I would say that if you must buy an Ebay suspension Ebook, buy Ebay Replay. I bought ezsuspension guide and it was just some sales trick to get you buy his email service. Good info, but full of scare tactics.

This forum, however, is really the best "ebook" out there.

As stated at the beginning of this thread; I too bought Robert Windsors eBook "How to get back on eBay". He does have some decent info, however because he is pushing his own email service (FLYSWATTER) his information in regards to FREEMAIL and ISP email is slanted and not truthful. I wanted the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth! I was also frustrated that he NEVER answered any of my emails.

EBAY REPLAY on the otherhand has nothing else to sell you so you get straight information...plus their customer support is excellent.

Stealth dog all of your post has been about this Ebook. you sure your not the owner? you post at least once a month pushing this Ebook off on us

Oh I only wish
 

:rolleyes: I believe in pushing what works. I also brag about my Ford Pick-up but I don't own that company either...:D But I am still trying to convince them into starting an affiliate program...then watch out:p

That is...convincing eBay Replay ...not ford..:p

Moved from another thread
 

This needed to be moved to the appropriate thread

3. Get a checking account with your new DBA and new address

4. Use that info for Ebay and Paypal.


I plan on doing that if I get suspended again. So far I'm pretty good with the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info, less work and cost too. One thing I miss is my Paypal debit card. I don't think there is a way for me to ever apply for it now (unless I follow the list above)

Don't rag on stealthdog too much. What he says it right. Ebay Replay really is that good and if they had an affiliate program I would be pushing it more too.

Well coopster72...that is not exactly what I am refering to; but that can work to some degree also. On a nine man team...that would be about 4 players.

Thats too much work to do with the chance Ebay will boot you off 2 weeks later

Yes! I bought the ebook too from Ebay Replay and it is good. A good place to start, and the less BS we give out to ebay and paypal to get back on the better you will feel about your ebay business. We are not criminals here but are being treated as such by feebay! So thanks stealthdog for your recomendation. However, you can do all the book says, but you have to keep your eye on the ball like the guy in "Bourne Identity" That's how I feel sometimes like a secret agent! LOL

There is a difference between work and "GUESSWORK". Either way you attempt to get back on eBay you will be "working-out" the details so as not to get re-booted. If it's too much work to do it right...why even bother at all! lays out the facts so you are not taking a "CHANCE"!

Absolutely...never become too confident or cocky. Just like losing your driving liciense; you can still get in a legal car and drive...but many different causes can get you pulled over and busted. You have to be extra cautious if you already got busted before. But it helps to know what to keep your eye on...thats where a good researched publication can help like eBay RePlay.

I did write Ebay Replay the other day and asked them if they had any plans for a affiliate program. they said they are looking into it. They said they have looked at commission Junction and clickbank but nether one of them looked promising. They said when and if they do find a good affiliate program they will definitely drop a link on the page of their site and to just keep checking back.

after having been suspended, has anyone ever then been able to open another ebay account and keep it open successfully? or is it just a matter of time till it comes crashing down again?
also, does anyone know if you can you close an open paypal account that has not yet been suspended, then open another one with a different email address but same ssn#?
it seems like to really get rolling again you would need both the ebay and paypal account running perfectly.

Let them know, Clickbank will probably work better for them. They can create a separate page or website to handle Clickbank sales if that's what they mean by not looking promising. A lot of sellers do it. The sooner they have an affiliate program, the easier it is to make more sales. ;)

Hi, quick question did you use your real name that you have on your DBA on ebay or did you change the name when you applied for your ebay account? Just curious, as I will be applying for another ebay account and was thinking of getting a business account.

I am on a MAC so the exe files did not work. Their site did not give you a way to buy the book that I could see!

Honest and Stealth
 

What do you guys think about this:

1. I was going to start a business account anyway... I would get a new tax I.D. with it. This is just like a SS#.

2. I would then create a new bank account with the business name.

3. I could use a new address if I move by then, or a modified address such as Aspkins misspelled recommendations.

4. Change my ip of course.

5. Since I am a webhost, I can create new email address with a new domain, and still pop it into my machine.

6. Then create PayPal and Ebay accounts with the business name. Everything on the up-and-up, what do you guys think?

Sounds like you've got it.

DNS numbers
 

Do you think they could track the DNS host of my email addresses?

Good point, I don't think so though. They have a hard enough time tracking IP's. I doubt they have the processes in place to do a whois lookup for the email domain. I would guess that you use a web host that thousands of other are domains hosted? If so, your new domain will blend right in with the others.

Sounds like a plan.
But with ebay constantly changing the rules and giving the boot to anyone and everyone who knows what will work?

Thats a simple fix...just use WINE. It is a Windows Emulator that works for Mac. Them you can use that .exe file;)

Hey Fancy, now your talking. You got the ingredients their to make it work...especially since you are a web host...go for it

You can sort of condense the information in Ebay replay (which, I agree, is the best of the 3 Ebay Suspension EBooks I've read) to the following playbook:

1. Get a new IP. Format your HD if possible. Never check suspended email account or Paypal account.

2. Get a new email. Any will do. Gmail is among the best. There are some ways to prevent the embedded Ebay tags from finding out you have a suspended account, but if you've completed step one, you probably don't need it.

2. Get a credit card with a totally different name/address. Generally, any post office box will do. Or you can use a Simon giftaccount card, which can be sent to any name/address (but I think there is extra suspicion for Simon card users).

3. Get a new bank account (I personally have a savings and checking. Savings was only for recieving Paypal. When I needed a new Ebay account, I just changed the savings account #.) It can be in your name because Paypal never checks. However, sometimes you might have issues if you try to send money from your bank account and the names do not match up.

4. Open an Ebay account. Open Paypal account. Verify PP with credit card expanded use # and bank account deposit verification.

5. Do not use any information or anything similar to your former account (new pictures, new picture hosting, new listings, new fonts, etc.). For best results, hold off posting for 30 days until your account is no longer "new".

6. Profit

A caveat is that I've found "Auctiva" to be a good service, which also helps you minimize your time spent on the Ebay site listing and replying to emails, plus it can check your auction progress without you having to log into Ebay.

What type of fees does Auctiva charge?

Can they take CC payments?

Are they pretty easy to use/

Sounds like they could be a nice buffer between us "branded" scofflaws and the gods of ebay.

Auctiva is a free service. I've used them as have many here. I don't think Aspkin has a problem with posting links like this, but out of respect just look for .com

Auctiva is an ebay supporter but to our knowledge they do not share information. There will be a "token" generated when you register. This too is not supposed to share anything with ebay, even though the ability is clearly there. I suppose it's only ethics and loyalty that keeps them from doing so.

Very easy to use, you can set them up for automatic payments, notices, etc. The only problems I have are the basic "save before you enter" errors. But if you're familiar with ebay you're familiar with that and it won't be much of an issue. Also, if you're copying code, they're a bit tricky as Auctiva has their own code you have to strip first.

I would definately recommend giving them a try though. If nothing else, they're a great repository for tailoring your listings before actually listing.

Automatic payments? To who...ebay (for fees) sellers (for goods).
Do they collect payment (like PP) I believe that they offer a checkout service.

If this all is true doesn't using them make getting around the EB-PP conspiracies a lot easier by basically finding a way around PP?

The last thing you said I got totally lost on.
"copying code" and "strip first" I'm sure this has something to do with web page layout or authoring, but I don't have a clue.

I use Auctiva with my merchant account to accept payments from my customers through ebay checkout

Nope sure can not, unless your using another auction management service besides Auctiva such as a 3rd party ebay checkout

would you like to share this book for free with everyone or are you just advertising?;)

would it be out of line to post the ebook here? :rolleyes: :o

Thats what im saying share this golden wisdom!!

I don't know if I'd post it here but PM would be encouraged.

IMO eBay Replay is a rip-off. For the money it charges, it doesn't tell you much more than you can find on these forums.

It's always something for nothing...geesh
 

You think $30 for over 200 pages of researched information is too much. LOL...LOL What you are really saying is your to tight to spend it...or you do not consider your business worth the investment. Come-on lets be honest...if forums had all the answers; then you wouldn't be hanging around them for months asking questions on how to get back on. then come back after you got booted again asking more questions. You want only free info...great; but you get what you pay for. (Nothing personal Aspkin:o ) Me myself, I would gladly pay $100 or more for that ebay replay ebook. It got me back on just about 8 months ago and no boot up my arse yet. I've been telling you good folk about this for a few months...and all I here is gimmy gimmy for free. Guess none of you were around here when EBAY REPLAY (the company themselves) wrote on here about a copyright infringement on there book ...were you?? Well I was!!! Anyone remember CPUGEEK:confused:

So before you go putting Aspkins site in the sling for wanting something for free that’s protected, consider the consequences. The book is worth having...legally. And Aspkins site is worth keeping around too. :D

I actually got a hold of a copy of 'eBay Replay' a few days ago through a friend who already has it on his computer. I will be reverse-engineering the software that installs the eBook tomorrow and post it on a torrent available for everyone. Then everyone can make a judgment if it's worth the money or not. If it is, they can still buy their own licensed copy.

I'll let you guys know when it's done. It's the least I can do for everyone that has helped me over the past weeks, I feel like giving something back ;)

thats awsome i was trying to just put randow crap in for the key please post the torrent link when its avalible. you rock!
