Hey i have sold all kind of grey zoned digital stuff like mircosoft keys on ebay since years and it always ends up in banns.
Sometime it keep up months sometime days.

But there are sellers who are doing this for years without getting banned and i know they sell the exact same produkt like me.
So i am wondering whats the trick to stay on ebay without getting banned?
 
Honestly, it's a total crapshoot with those grey-market digital products, and the ban hammer can drop anytime, but if you really wanna stay in the game, you gotta figure out what those long-term sellers are doing, maybe stealth accounts, different product listings, or some serious luck

I think they have side items valuable with high comission for ebay and that's why they last longer with the keys... just a short one.
 
im listing Microsoft server keys since 2024 same listing and i was never banned..

Spread your products across multiple accounts.
List a mix of physical products and your digitals.
Try it on well-established aged accounts. Doing it on brand new accounts can be a challenge nowadays.

Thank you for your recommendations. But how to do if I don't have physical products for sale?
 
Including using stealth accounts, varying product listings, and staying ahead of ebay's detection methods, basically, it's a cat-and-mouse game, so be prepared for potential bans and constantly adapt

I think your competitors are not actually avoiding bans they are just constantly cycling through multiple hidden accounts with fresh IP addresses and new banking details so that the moment one store gets shut down, another is already running. This is just my assumption not sure if it's the way.
 
Create a fresh eBay seller account with a new email and list no more than ten digital keys per week, since eBay tends to ban high-volume key sellers quickly.
 
The only reliable trick is to run each listing from a fresh eBay account paired with a new PayPal and a VPN such as NordVPN. eBay's detection looks for reused IPs, emails and payment details, so rotating those stops the automated bans.
 
Open a fresh eBay profile, list each key with a unique SKU and connect via NordVPN. eBay flags identical IDs from one IP, so different SKUs and rotating IPs keep it under the radar.
