You can start with used items and own photos.

1. Don't sell high risk items

2. If you do, make sure they are legit and you have invoices from a verified distributer :)

There's no way to avoid limitations if your account gets flagged.

General rule of thumb is steer well clear from high risk items, high risk brands, and high risk categories.

Selling genuine Apple iPhone's for example will result in invoice requests, due it it being a high risk brand.

Phone in general are high risk because often times stolen ones are flogged on ebay. So yet again, expect invoice requests.

I think the better mindset would be that you do your best to avoid high risk items, always ship on time, keepo everything consistent and stable.

But even then some times they'll still flag you because of something out of your control.
Again this is pretty rare that it happens
