Is changing what I sell dangerous?
 

OK so I currently sell only clothing. I'm thinking of getting into selling computer memory, is this going to raise any alarms if I suddenly change what I'm selling on my main account?

eBay is stringent with memory sales and Sandisk is a nightmare to sell they only let me sell 6 a month

It sure does if your start getting really busy pretty quickly and so more funds start going through your account!

Hmm that's what I was affraid of, probably better off using anotehr account.

What about usb flash drives, micro SD cards, are they a pain to sell as well? I wasn't so keen on them as the markup is poor though.

We bought a new account of here after I got banned trying to help out close relative who had got banned previously, so a combination of family linking and quick increase in revenue caused my ban, so now we are taking it slowly, very slowly, to get bit of feedback listing some simple things like charity shop buys so as to not attract undue attention whils't getting that early feedback, computer bits and pieces could be something to get u that unwanted attention if you start selling it straight away and get busier suddenly like you might as we start to approach Christmas

Might just tr selling them slow then or maybe even sell on Amazon as I seem to be able to get away with a lot more there.

Memory is a high risk highly copied item, so I wouldn't event think about introducing that to a new account until u establish a selling history for 90 days with only low risk items

Than after slowly add the computer memory USB's

Just keep all invoices and receipts

Re: Is changing what I sell dangerous?
 

yes u will have limited listing with memory its a no go with eBay and new accounts im afraid

Re: Is changing what I sell dangerous?
 

OK what about a 3 year old account with over 2500 items a month selling limit and I'll be selling USB flash sticks and micro SD cards for around £10. Will that be safe enough? The account currently sells totally different items.

Has to be 100% genuine on Amazon prices are high on there and as has been said previously they are clearly trying and succeeding to get anything remotely counterfeit off there

Re: Is changing what I sell dangerous?
 

Not going to be selling anything vero or counterfeit in anyway

Re: Is changing what I sell dangerous?
 

Just have all the proper documents ready, especially because the holiday season is just weeks away

If your receipts or invoices are from China than you may kill the account

And too much of a sudden change will raise flags , I would gradually mix in the old products with more and more new products , but a complete 360 will raise flags and they will question the accounts ownership as well as the products

Actually listings from China via Hong Kong are still up and surviving on Amazon currently! They are clearly going to have all all Chinese paperwork, that is on Amazon by the way
