Ebay taking down my listings left and right!
 

Hello all, first off let me say I have read the "ebay stealth" and I have many stealth accounts. At times I like to post vero items to get good profits, but lately ebay haven't been playing that. I sell household/essential items with small profits on my stealth accounts which is nice. But I just can't stay away from the big profits, so I take that chance to sell vero time to time. And yes, I know and heard that vero items is a hard time to sell. Which is getting harder now than ever. My question really is, is there someway I can be under the radar when it comes to sell vero items? Or should I focus my time to find something else to sell? I was making a good living with vero items, but now that ebay came outta no where and started to take them down, I am now stuck with the small profits. So now, i'm kind of in a hole. Advice on would I should do? Anything would help.:help:

Sell good items that are profitable and not "vero"
Basically, either adapt with ebay or find something new to sell. Tons of items listed on ebay. I am sure you can find something that does not cause you problems and still make good money.

When you say "adapt with ebay", what do you mean?

adapt: play by their rules or do not use their platform.

You cant go on selling vero items when ebay prohibits it and not expect backlash.

How do you list these items?

Re: Ebay taking down my listings left and right!
 

Maybe eBay is not meant for you...

Gotcha. I've been looking on ebay to see what large amout of items I can sell.. I was thinking about selling small profitable things. And spread sells to each of my stealth accounts, think that's a good approach?

Re: Ebay taking down my listings left and right!
 

Sounds like a good plan. I always suggest finding items you are passionate about. Things based around your hobbies etc..

Well, I never flood ebay with them. I create a 3 days auction, as soon as that one sells or close to selling. I post another on a different stealth( different pictures and description). I thought I was doing it slow enough so I won't get ebay attention, but sure enough..

Some name brand items can get pulled faster than others, just depends on the item.

Sadly not much can be done but keep on experimenting - there is no failproof plan for selling vero stuff without getting an account axed...takes experimentation and techniques depending on the item/category involved I figure

Actively encouraging vERo selling though... Norty rsot.

I did not actively encourage :) I am quite neutral in fact hah.

Re: Ebay taking down my listings left and right!
 

how old are the accounts? and how much feedback do the accounts have before you start listing the veto items?

Re: Ebay taking down my listings left and right!
 

Depending on the items, why do you want to risk your accounts for those type of items anyways? You can make more money in many areas that won't tick eBay off.
