I've seen people trying this to sell cars, nobody bids on their vehicles because they aren't THAT stupid.

What I did was hold a garage sale on ebay selling a bunch of worthless crap. Shipped it all out and now I have a legitimate score. And you do not need 200 sales to gain buyer trust. I only have 54 and I have sold $800 items in the past.

Well, im not selling car's, just electronics for $100-400 I think this area is very competitive and I need a decent feedback score. And you have a good point how many buyers will actully look thru other than the first page of feedback...


If my first 2,000 came from buying 1 cent ebooks, and my most recent 500 points came from selling, whos to know? Seems like a good tactic.
