1st account Going Stong over 20 lisitngs :)

[kirkie]

I have over 20 listings listed on my first account, coming up to a week, no notifications or limits.

Time to work on my second account.

Much thanks to aspkin and the ebay bible

[needhelpplease]

oh honey...wait alot longer than a week to start getting all happy and boastful....yes of course it is exciting.....however ebay/paypal is well known for "bursting bubbles".......so dont get in that bubble just yet. Good Luck though!

[ebayerOG]

keep us posted on how it goes matey as ive just opened my new accounts just waiting for the deposits to come through if it dont work out im going to cry as i had a good income when i was on there :(

how much are each of your 20 items ? as that sounds bit risky putting that many on,the items i sell or are going to be selling are £50 each so i was just gonna list 3 or 4 a week which is not going to get me much money but i dont want to get chucked off again

1 thing i wanted to no is do i just use the account up to the limit then just open a new 1 as i realy dont want to see that id verification crap please :(

thanks again you guys

[kirkie]

My paypal account is still waiting to be verified via deposits.

My listings are around £30

I feel very confident about this account.

No more listings going on for the next week as i am working on my other account

[kirkie]

I wanted to load this account from the get go to build it up strong so when in a month or so time i will have 50-100 listings

I'm trying different techniques on my aco****s

[needhelpplease]

No No No...50-100 listings in a one month old account???? If you want to keep that shiny new account, go SLOW SLOW SLOW.....list 3-5 items a week SLOWLY and after 4 months IF IF you are anxious then bump it up a few more listings a week then when you started. You should be listing 50-100 items AFTER about a 5-6 month period....again this is only if you want to up your chances of being able to keep the account and not be asked for invoices and a piss sample and your blood type....just saying....slow slow slow.

[kirkie]

I am got docs & invoices ready for them

[kirkie]

I think it all depends on how you set the account up, ive heard of ppl having problems Listing 5 items in there first week, so far no problems..

[needhelpplease]

problem with that theory is that paypal has been well known for no longer "wanting to be friends" with people for NO REASON.....if they think you are fishy or someone with a stealth account or someone that has been on ebay/paypal before and has been suspended the wiill bleed you dry for info and STILL deny you......not worth the headache....for those that are reading this post just wondering if they should do the same...the answer is no....go slow....but good luck to you.

Yes your right, take it slow peeps, i am just testing the waters with his one.

Am i wrong in thinking no matter how slowly you take it your account is going down at some point if your selling vero?

If we list and sell slowly then doesnt that just mean that we're delaying us hitting the transaction limits? Once we get here we have to supply millions of documents and if its vero goods then its practically impossible to get past.

Or can someone confirm that if we take it really slowly we will never reach the document and supplier stage?

goin by what ive been through in the past ur right...u hit the limit ur buggered unless if you got stealth as they want id etc

There is really no way of really guaranteeing no invoice/supplier check - even non-Vero sellers get hit with it.

I sold some junk around the house and got hit with it.

Only time and trial.

[kirkie]

Yea, i think when you hit the 1700 mark thats when they want to verify you, well that was what happend on my last account but it was linked and i was suspended.

My stuff is not Vero, made my first sale today. got paid £29.99 through paypal, no payment holds..

So far so good..

so , If you sell stuff from around your house, how can you provide the invoices they want?

[JEM]

if I remember correct , on new accounts, they do not do the 21 day hold on each and every single sale, some get held others go through right away - kind of random like. Same for you?

[dburnside]

I sell max 10 a week on any one account,make tenner profit on each then ur quids in, paypal are being extremly difficult and not accepting any vero invoices if I get hit

[rsot]

WHOA - 2 weeks old and 70 listings...

No matter what you are selling, you are asking to get hit with verification. A new account should not have more than 2 listings ACTIVE at any given point...and when I say NEW I mean less than 60 days, 90 days even to be safe.

Well, seems like you have everything ready so really wish you all the best. Good thread to keep posted.

Well I am certainly learning the hard way!! I have just got limited again on my new stealth account. I should have listened and should have started way more SLOWLY! Over 3 weeks sold about 40 items - not too expensive - about £350 in paypal account. Got a call from paypal last night wanting to know details. Withdrew some money today and wham bam! account limited! What do I do? Do I try and refund everyone or just dump account and wait for paypal to refund them. There is no way I am sending my stock out because that means even more loss! I am really pxxxxx off!
