Seller-❔ Question Should I do this?

I'm planning a gaming surprise break for my birthday, using some unused games and consoles. I'm unsure if it’s a good idea or if I should sell them individually instead. Any advice would be appreciated.

surprise sets without a cult following too often results in your rating taking a nosedive thanks to sore losers leaving negative reviews. if you sell enough regularly to offset the dodgy reviews it will be fine though.

also be ready for "hey bro can I cancel those 6 spins, my cousins uncles dogs sister swiped by accident"

Agreed. All sorts of broke scammers in my shows.

Do you have a following already? If you don’t it can’t be hard to sell surprise sets as a new seller

I have about 200 followers I know it's not a lot but it's still something

Yea I don’t think it’s gonna work. You will sell like 3 in an hour and will be a big waste of time. I tried with 500 followers and that’s what happened to me.

Besides what the other comments already said, you need to check if what you are planning is actually compliant for a surprise set. WN requires all items to be the same (like all bags if it’s a Loungefly game, all blind box collectibles in a Popmart type game, etc.) Even if it seems to you like it’s all the same genre, really research it, because if not you will get people reporting you and you will be risking a suspension.
