1stly thank you very much for your response mate! I have 1 more question for you...when you use voip and ebay asks you for verification, then you receive an auto call which says : "If you were expecting this call press #". Am i correct? If i remember well even if i press the "#" it makes no difference, its like i never press the "#". How you bypass this? Also which voip provider you use?

Thanks again budd, i really appreciate your time to respond to all of us about the ebay thing.

That has never happened to me, I know what you mean....Its like if you're expecting this call press 6 or 1 or any other number. It might have to do with the voip you're using. I Pm'ed you with the voip service I use.
 
Does anyone know/understand Ebay's policy around copyright infringement?

The reason I ask this is that a friend and I started creating special handmade items (sprites of different video games/online games/etc) and tried selling them on Ebay, only to have our listing removed and getting a message about copyright infringement.

Is there any way to use our idea on Ebay without breaking the rules?
 
I've been having trouble with irrelevant search listings on my affiliate custom banners; it's for a real estate auction site, and I keep getting listings for vintage Grateful Dead posters and "baby genius" toys! I've used the real estate categories, and eBay support says to use "popular searches" (which would limit me to designer handbags and iPads) and their forum helpers say use search links (which defeats the purpose of the enticing pretty pictures and buy-it-now)

Is there anything that can be done to ensure the correctness of the custom banners? Is there anyway to use a search link on either custom banners or editor kit, rather than categories and search terms?

Or maybe is there a WP plugin that can convert an affiliate text link to something like an iframe?
 
First of all thanks for all the tips you already shared!

I tried to become an eBay affiliate but got refussed do you have some tips for me on how to get it quickly approved?
 
I hired my friend who has a Power-Seller account to sell a lot of the stuff I had. It went well. I want to get my own account now.

What do you suggest as a person with a fresh account to get good ratings?

How long does it take to become a "Power Seller"?


Thanks

Where are the affiliate custom banners at? Like, what kind of sites? It could likely have something to do with the people browsing the sites and their own search histories/cookies in their browsers.
 
I've been wanting to create an eBay account for a while now but I'm not sure that its safe to link my paypal to the eBay account because I have a vba linked to my paypal as well as a prepaid debit card. I was planning on using the account for buying only. Also I don't remember the birthday I put on my paypal account (no way to see bday on profile) so will eBay get suspicious when my eBay account has a different dob? Your thoughts/experiences?
 
I don't know if this has been asked before but what do you think of services that offer product research like terapeak?
Is it worth the monthly expenditure?

yes. i'd pay 3-5 times what they're asking the first 3 months i did research before finding my niche. it's esp good when scouting for products, and i use it over 50 times each day. def worth the investment.
 
do you use any software can research keywords and trends like terapeak?
and any other software can help your ebay business?

Thanksman
 
I've added you on AIM a while back.
I've got a few questions that cannot be answered here.

Thanks
 
This question isn't directly related to ebay, mostly to china suppliers.
How can we know if a china supplier is overpricing shipping fees for wholesale goods? Is there a way we can check online what the actual fees are?
Thanks
 
what is the conversion rate average basket value and overall traffic as a percentage of their total traffic for the affiliate channel?
 
Also here are a few more questions-
Is there an alert tool for ebay when you product sells?
How do you keep track of profit/loss
How do you deal with an angry customer or a scammer.

Thank you so much if you could also pm me answers to that would be nice thx.
