Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

Item has been posted...but what has the alarm bells ringing is the buyer opened his ebay account today!!! - with a foreign sounding name, but when I checked the paypal the name is an english name?!?

So don't know what is happening...I have blocked the buyer from bidding on anything in the future and blocked zero feedback bidders.

I shall see what happens with the sale and keep you guys posted - it may be useful info for everyon on here

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

Items gone out today 1st class recorded lets see what happens..I also inc a little freebie with the order in order to get good feedback from the buyer

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

Don't know what all this hype is about, it's a cost of doing business. Not once have I been scammed in years! If you worry about that too much you shouldn't be selling or trading online

@hdavey10

OP's first listing after a suspension. I suggested to her in pm's to approach carefully.

Appears the advice is being taken on board. There is no hype.

Merely a newbie sharing what they are doing & thus a learning curve for others.

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

the camera sold today for £296 - the paypal funds are on hold for 21 days.

i will post the item out special delivery add the tracking to shorten the hold.

i have just under £300 in paypal is it wise to send in docs to remove the £1900 limit now rather than later

@amyworld

Be proactive and go ahead now.

Very excited for you

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

Update!

The buyer for the camera has left positive feedback :-)

Which means that I can now start selling a little more although my selling limit is £650 a month.

On the road to success now.

I List after a week and sell secondhand stuff for around a tenner and not any iphones or vero products
ebay will ring you up and stop you selling while they ask for supplier invoices for your products
the slower the better as they are on it and don't buy lots of giffgaff sim cards for a penny each for feedback it looks dodgy to them

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

When funds clear, do not withdraw all in one shot either.

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

Just under £300 will clear in the next few days and £280 of it is my sisters for her camera that sold - she wants the whole £280 withdrawn!

Told her it would limit the account and I don't want that to happen..is it best to send the docs in to remove the £1900 limit and make the account look "genuine" if the docs are sent in?

What other way is there to withdraw funds in a stealth way instead of asking someone to send you a paypal invoice all the time?

spent so much time on opening the stealth that i don't want it to go down or get limited etc

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

I have been having a nightmare with Entropay I added a credit card as a funding source and Entropay still nearly 2 weeks on not added the authrization code after they deducted £1.00 from the card.

All I can see on my bank statement is 'Entropay London' - and no 6 digit code which I need to complete verification of the card!

its driving me mad - i have seller fees to pay of asap...entropay have turned out as incapable as paypal!!!

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

cool!

I have close to £300 in paypal I sold my sisters camera and she wants the money...how best to withdraw these fund without being limited?

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

Withdraw SLOWLY to bank account - did you get positive feedback? Item arrived? Dont just withdraw in one shot. If all is achieve, perhaps 50-100 quids worth a try

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

DO NOT send documents in when you have money in the account - have you not thought what will happen if those documents are rejected for any reason? You definately won't be seeing that £300 for 6 months

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

Your sister needs to know she should not hassle you about the amount to be withdrawn.

You have a delicate situation at the moment.

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

I am leaving the money in paypal i know the paypal will get limited if i withdraw the money i am going to 'age' the money in the paypal account...if anyone else can help please pm

Re: Can I go ahead and sell on Ebay?
 

buyer left positive feedback which is good but still not worth the risk in trying to withdraw the money - because the account will get limited.

I am going to 'age' the money - leave it alone for a while before trying
