Ask me ANYTHING about eBay!

Hi InfinityAI,

I'm planning to enter dropshipping & I'm planning to join SaleHoo, do you think it's a great place to learn the ropes? What do you think? I hope you can give your opinion on this, thanks.
 
whats the best vpn thats free for using paypal/ebay on stealth accounts? and best forwarding mail service for UK?
 
NICE THREAD ‼

Do you know the best software to search the best selling items on eBay?
Can you give me the software :D

I'm a dropshipper, but now paypal will hold the fund in 21 days, when item sold on eBay and that's the problem, I'm worried, my money on paypal, not enough for buying stuff from the dropship, any suggestion?
 
got my EBAY account suspended for 7 days for alleged CR infringement, now the alleged victim company has issued us a DD order, we just advertised an item that was purchased from garage sale, piece of junk, a language course, missing CDs, WTF... any suggestions ???

You can start a new account; should be able to find the information around or you can just contact me. My information is in my sig.

How do you keep track of your orders? I started selling on eBay a couple months ago and now I'm getting 40+ sales a day. It's getting hard to keep track of everything. Any suggestions?

You can use an excel document to go ahead and keep track of your orders. Otherwise, you can go ahead and use third party sites for listings and they should be able to compile your data.

is the global sourses any good legit site? but strange no one accept paypal , can i trust money gram or western union payment? thanx

Global sources is a legitimate site but you probably won't make much money with them on eBay because their prices aren't competitive enough for the eBay market and it's probably largely saturated too.

infinity: how to find items what s on demand?thanx

An easy way to find items in demand is to go around searching for item keywords and go to completed listings to see what's selling and what's not.

Hi InfinityAI,

Salehoo's items are largely saturated on eBay, chances are you won't be much money. If you want a solid course for making money on eBay and Amazon, I have a step-by-step video course coming out at the end of the month called Brand Name Profits.

whats the best vpn thats free for using paypal/ebay on stealth accounts? and best forwarding mail service for UK?

Free VPN's generally are no good for eBay and PayPal because they're overused and the IP's are not clean. VPN's that are too popular are also not very good because they are overused and you could have a bad IP. The best solution would be a private VPN company or get a VPS.

Thanks :-)
The best software to search the best selling items on eBay is eBay itself. Although it's time consuming, that's the best way as the data is live. If you want aggregated information, Terapeak is a good tool for viewing the trends.

To get rid of the 21 day hold, you need close to 20 detailed seller rating on eBay and PayPal; once you have that, you'll be able to sell without any holds whatsoever.
 
How do I get a Ebay stealth account? I am ready to pay but I don't wanna be scamed by ebooks or something that just give out bs info :)
 
I closed my Premiere Paypal account and opened a new one with my brother's name. I forgot Paypal puts limits on new accounts, and now I can't withdraw my money. Any help?

PS: I had sold iPhone 4S that I bought from Apple store.

thanks for helping everyone out.
I am selling Ipads and Ipods

Now want to enter ebay market.
we all know there is little discount on genuine products

>>>so what is the best way to sell such items fixed price or auction
I was planning to sell at fixed price.
>>>what percentage do you guys think is your cost?

listing charges.... shipping charges..percentage on sales.... packing
 
I found a seller who's selling the Real Windows 7 COA Keys. Is it legal to post these on eBay? He told me that the 3 costumers he had on software were making money bigtime.
I was kinda lucky to find this seller but Im pretty excited to sell the keys, I only dont know if eBay is the right place for that.
 
I currently have an eBay account that I opened in 2009 which has 100% positive feedback (104). Now I dont understand why I get a limit on certain categories when I tried to list multiple items. I am selling high-end makeup and making a killing but I can only sell about 5 pieces and then they tell me that I have to wait 30 days to list more. I feel this is ridiculous, especially because I have a good standing account that is 3 years old. I called them but they say they cant do anything about it. This is so annoying. I even tried to make new accounts but they still limit me and on top of it, they make me wait 21 days for my money! Anybody else have this problem? If so, how do I get around this?? Thanks in advance.
 
Hi, I am a noob just opened an ebay seller account. I want to know that what to sell on ebay as i am not from USA, so i can not ship. Is there any digital item which i can sell on ebay. Is there any way please teach me Thank You :)
 
I've been actively selling on eBay for 8 months now and I want to take some steps to keep myself safe and stable. My question is, if I get a negative feedback on my second account, will it affect my first account? I know that if you get one shut down, they all get shut down, but I'm just wondering about each individual feedback in terms of TRS status and also Best Match positioning.
 
Questions I thought about recently: Though hard to imagine, but there must be still lots of people without an eBay-account.

- what is the "sign-up rate" on eBay (com, europe, or average) ..(daily or monthly)
- is eBay still paying commission for new sign-ups?
- if yes: how much commission & what are eBays criterias for affiliates (bringing new sign-Ups)

Thanks a lot
 
Thanks for the helpful information your providing.

No problem :-)

How do I get a Ebay stealth account? I am ready to pay but I don't wanna be scamed by ebooks or something that just give out bs info :)

It's pretty easy to make a new one:
1. New IP
2. New Useraccount
3. New Information

I can also help you if you need to make a new stealth account.

I closed my Premiere Paypal account and opened a new one with my brother's name. I forgot Paypal puts limits on new accounts, and now I can't withdraw my money. Any help?

PS: I had sold iPhone 4S that I bought from Apple store.

Get a gift card from Walgreens called Vanilla Visa, register for the zip code, and then add it to the account, and verify the deposits on it. This will remove the withdrawal limits.

Think fixed price is the better way to go. If you want to be blackhat about it, you can sell the items as an auction, and then use a shill account (another buyer account) to bid the price up so it won't sell below your baseline.

eBay isn't a good place to sell Windows Keys as they get taken down. Don't sell windows keys on an account that you can't afford to lose!

These are called category limits, and eBay puts a limitation on how many items you can sell within high risk categories. They usually reevaluate every 90 days and increase/decrease the limits that you can have. If you want higher ones immediately and you have the real deal, you can call eBay up directly and get them increased.

Car manuals work well as they're digital, but don't say in the auction that you're selling digital car manuals. Put "Digital Download" in the file as a picture and they won't be able to detect the keywords digital and ban your listing. I'll make a method on this later.

Oh. So much info it makes my head hurt.

So much typing my hands hurt. haha

I know that if you get one shut down, they all get shut down, but I'm just wondering about each individual feedback in terms of TRS status and also Best Match positioning.

If you get too much negative feedback on your second account, both accounts will get shut down if they're linked. That's why it's so important to get multiple accounts to diversify your risk.

Is penny auctions good for listing to get some feedback on a new account ? Get like 10-15 penny auction= 15 feedbacks then start listing penny auctions about 10 or 15 that 30feedback just in a couple days ? Is it safe ?

Yes, it should be safe. It's really a crapshoot as to whether penny auctions are safe because most of the time when you do get banned it's from people that report you.

I'm not very familiar with eBay EPN and what they're doing as of presently.
 
Infinity, how is that course you are working on coming along? I am interested in learning from you.

Also, are you on skype? if so, please post your skype, or PM me your skype if you don't want to post it publicly. I am PMing you as well.
 
Hey infin!

a couple of my paypals got limited i already know what i did wrong. One said it will be released in 180 days the other one 45.

Now there are a couple other that have been limited but i have not received an email stating when they will be releasing the funds. The email starts off with your account is limited until we hear from you.

i dont see a point in calling them i already know what they want me to send to them which is a waste of time because they have connected all of them so it wont matter if i send in docs they wont restore the account.. Since i havent gotten an email saying when they will release my funds what can i do? Will it be released in the usual 180 days?
 
i am thankful for this help. I am wondering about shipping on ebay. Small items as well as big how does someone sell item for under $5 offer free shipping plus fees and still turn a buck? What about a large shipment 1 2 tons product shipping fees and still make profit ive looked at freight and its still not cheap enough to make.
