UK eBay & PaypalGeneral discussions about eBay.co.uk Suspensions and Paypal.co.uk limited accounts. This forum is geared towards UK eBay & Paypal sellers.
Noticed a new seller on ebay tonight, 7 day old account, straight in undercutting every single seller, obviously a stealther due to the items being sold are the popular ones.
I dont understand how they can risk brand new account which has sold over 300 items in less than a week, surely this activates every single red flag there is?
The complete step-by-step guide to get back to selling today!
I've sold a lot on new accounts before. Once you have a good many active selling accounts, you feel more free to experiment with accounts and push the limits. You have to take chances!
My friend it's all about experimenting. When I first started stealth I was extra cautious as I made my own accounts and bought some too. But once you have a lot of Ebay accounts and doing good, naturally your confidence grows and you start experimenting not being too bothered about losing an account here and there.

Because having to list slow is a askpin.com exclusive myth lol. Said this atleast 25 times, thats what payment holds are for, its close to impossible to rip ebay/paypal off on new accounts. If you don't have tracking then you don't get the money for 10-12 days, atleast 30% of buyers would open a case in that time and you'd get banned so ebay/paypal has no reason to care over new accounts selling fast
His ebay account may not be banned but his paypal will definately get suspended, and all money made will be stuck in a 21 day hold.
or... he could live like a king for a while and get supended or another senario that is abit more positive thinking rather than being pessimistic is that he gets away with it and is ironically legit
This is totally inaccurate, PP will suspend accounts that are worked this way - tried it numerous times, failed everytime

One of many myths in fact!
You're better off listing faster on newer accounts, payment holds accompanied by a new seller wanting to get off the ground - nothing wrong with it. As long as you have everything in place you're good to go.
Forcing MC999 or other temporary suspension codes is the way forward

I know the UK is not the same as USA but on accounts I want to make big and strong, I try to get some sort of limitation within the first few days, especially paypal. Those accounts are incredibly strong as soon as you resolve the issues.

well ok then, find it hard to believe in all honesty. I often just ditch the 100/3500 types of accounts when they hit the £1800 receiving limit so I get a fair bit of experience on new accounts selling fast.
Out of 150+ accounts getting maxed out in either the 1st or 2nd month I've only lost 2 and tbh I think even those were a glitch. Crossed the 1800 euros point and it wouldn't let me send money, had to phone up and then they asked me for ID. Those are accounts without a bank attached to withdraw either so even riskier.
Lost a few others but normally on the 1st item listed or crossing the 2500 euros by mistake

I prefer to build accounts slowly and selling low value items personally, made the mistake a few years ago of listing a jacket that's worth £300 (not snide) on a brand new account and I still haven't seen the money to this day..
Think it might be worth selling a few second hand items first (even after getting 6 feeds for buying on the old saisnby card ..Iv had PP Boomph me strait away wen i sold on a new account and thye refunded every one first day ****s ..but others that iv taken time don well
New account - high selling
