Hey there, fellow eBay sellers! In this video, I address the buzz around the supposed eBay Relist Sell Similar Shadow Ban. I'm here to set the record straight and share my opinion that it's nothing but fake news.

1:16 AMEN... . I'm convinced most watchers are probably other sellers waiting to see what happens.... and, at the least they are not legitimate 'buyers'

You are 100% correct! Watchers mean nothing, I need buyers not watchers. Watchers are equivalent to tire kickers. I wouldn't take advice from a guy who is banned from selling on eBay.

But watchers often convert to buyers via "offers to watchers". So they aren't as useless as you seem to think.

If you have sent a decent offer to watchers of say 20% and they still haven't bought then those watchers are useless. They are either other sellers or bargin basement shoppers.

Let's put that video in context. It was a 40 second response to a viewer comment followed by a 6 and a half minute PAID ad for Skillshare. Not the first time he does things like that. He did a follow up video trying to say he didn't say that and he was just responding to a comment and blaming his viewers for not watching the entire video. The rest of the video was as usual him either plugging his paid membership group or a paid sponsor. And it created exactly what he wanted, a lot of views and comments on his video to pay him KZfaq and ad revenue. And all this from someone who has been suspended from ebay for over a year.

BINGO!!!! An ego-maniac. I watch a few guys I get info from and tips, etc. When they, maybe warn you of something, he will make a video telling viewers that their video was wrong. Sorry ....but why was it he couldnt produce documentation on $5,000, one of a kind sneakers?

Thanks for the comment! Very true, I watched a fair amount of his content before he was suspended on ebay. I took a lot of what he said with a grain of salt and picked out things that were useful in my own business. He knew the video would ruffle some feathers and he was right. I myself jumped in and made a video about it. And being totally honest, I did it because I knew it was hot topic so I hope you'll forgive me for that haha.

Ye i absolutely DO NOT get these people who want to watch your listing for weeks on end and IGNORE any kind of offer you send them without even countering. What is the point of this? I even have people watching for the price to drop on sports cards im selling for 1.00. Like they think im going to suddenly send them a lower offer? Amazing.

I know for a FACT he puts out information that is just not true. I suspect the previous commentor is correct. He actually said in a video that you need to list X number a day at $20 profit each to make $100K. And SAID as one of the reasons he gave for not making it is cuz "you are lazy". He inadvertently scrolled down his own listing before his ego got him banned and i SAW listings of mall brand garbage shirts for $7. HE is about HIM. I sell similar ALL THE TIME and it never has hurt me.

Thank you for the comment! I do dislike his tendency to just call people lazy when it comes to not being successful reselling. Maybe its a tough love approach but, I never liked it much. I heard him in a podcast address the $20 profit minimum per item thing. He stated that people complained about having to do lots of listings, or have large inventories. Thats why they push that so hard. Its obviously very unrealistic for a lot of people, including myself. At the end of the day, I just think there is a lot of ways to be successful on ebay and many people were doing great on ebay before all these KZfaqrs popped up. There is no one size fits all approach to reselling online and whoever tells you otherwise is normally trying to sell you something.

I've put my auctions on auto relist. I got tired from doing the Sell Similar, it's tiresome. And my Fixed prices turn over automatically every month. Maintaining and monitoring an EB "store" is very tiresome and a lot of work. I like to set it and forget it. What is shadow ban?

No you don't. I delist and sell similar all the time. I sell a lot of stuff that sits for months. Furthermore, I also tweak the listing every time I sell a similar item. I have almost 2000 items and never had problems with eBay when I delist 50 at a time 2 or 3 times a week. It keeps your item from becoming stagnant.

@@rogerfederer3817 Yep, I tweak everything a little. It also gives you the chance to check your pics and descriptions to make sure earthing is square. Once you get use to it, it goes pretty quick. I can delist and sell similar 50 in less than an hour, and that's tweaking each listing. I also list 7-10 new items with my sell similar.

Haven't seen the other video but if ebay didn't want sellers ending and using the sell similar feature then it wouldn't be a feature. Plus they have recently updated the process to make it faster and easier. Just sayin'. I end and sell similar all the time without issue.

Dude, I literally got a message from Ebay for delisting and relist as sell similar not to do it with warning that I will get shadow banned if I get caught doing it again. You just havent had Ebay messaging you regarding it with their own stupid rule.

lol Daily Refinement just does shit for clickbait. There was an interview with a chic with a huge store that got invited to eBay open to chat with executives. She said her growth advisor on eBay (someone working for the company), was the one who suggested to end and sell similar. Why would eBay care if you are using more of the listings you already pay for?
