TikTok Issues

[explicit3]

Whenever I try yo list a TikTok item for sale I get an error message saying it cannot list because of Ebay restrictions or a restriction on my account.  Any ideas why.  I do not have any restrictions.  Does Ebay not allow the sale of tiktok items??

I'm not sure what you mean by TikTok item?  Can you elaborate?

I use Auto DS for item listings a lot.  When I try and list an item that is being sold on TikTok on my store, I am getting an error message.  Is this not allowed by Ebay.  I can list itmes from Amazon, Ebay, Ali Express, Etc.  But not from TikTok

In other words TikTok would be my product source

@brightlightbookseller 

I've read @explicit3's elaboration, and I'm still confused. What did it do for you? 🤔

Your location shows as being in the US but are shipping from China and other places. 

Have you read the rules for Drop shipping and own the goods you are selling? 

Drop shipping and product sourcing | eBay

TikTok operate a marketplace, the OP is dropshipping from a bunch of sources none of which are allowed on eBay.

I don't know why eBay is preemptively blocking (only) TikTok, doesn't really matter given the OP's business plan is destined for failure.

That will get you suspended.

Dropshipping from other retail sites is not allowed.

@explicit3  You probably need different software to list from TikTok - eBay doesn't sync with all 3rd party listing services for all other platforms, and it sounds like it doesn't link through Auto DS for that. For the most part, the only way to list from TikTok to here is manually, but I know there is some automation available.

3rd party drop shipping or Retail Arbitrage can get your account suspended permanently.  The fact that you came on this forum and divulged your selling behavior can have serious and permanent consequences.  If you want to continue to sell on eBay, sell your own products you have in your possession.  Read the links @redmodelt

eBay doesn't integrate with Tik tok.
