I have 4 year aged Ebay Accounts HELP (Advice)

hustler_nyc · #1 10-01-2014

When I was younger (around the same time my first ebay account got banned) I was silly and made TONS of ebay buyer accounts. I initially made a lot of accounts trying to get back on and what I did was list a item and then create ANOTHER ebay account and bid on it.. (always ended up getting suspended in the end). I have I think anywhere from 10-30 EBAY only aged around 3-4 years accounts.

Please somewhere shed some light on this?? I know its not a BAD thing but is it really that much of a GOOD thing? Does a 4 year old ebay buyer account mean anything other than its a 4 year old account that will get the same 10/1000 most new accounts get? I mean I never sold a item but maybe had a couple bids buts thats it. No paypal either just aged ebay accounts.

Please tell me I have a gold mine awaiting me. Haha.

Just for the record I'm seeing some accounts had gotten a message saying if I didn't log in then the account would be deleted. The older accounts seem to be 100% still active.

Does not make much differnce really.

Accounts only start to age when they are selling.

so having a account from 2009 wouldn't come with any perks? Thats a bummer. At least I have a lot new/old ebay accounts ha.

Having a previous selling account from 2009 would, lol

As a buyer account, none.

An aged PayPal or an ages sellers account would be the only thing that would be useful.

Does that paypal need to be verified?

Depends on a slew of things with one being how you handle it. I recently used a decade old paypal account I forgot I even had and moved a pile of money through it with no holds of any kind. I actually wanted it linked to another paypal account and share info(history) and paypal would not do this and I think it was for my best interest(I called and had a long three way conversation with paypal supervisor in the business department trying to bridge this account)

Long story short, I had to REverify the account to get any funds out and I had to supply an SS number to gift from this account(long story/reason that does not make a lot of sense to most people and yes I get permission to gift in this manner and no it is not a good idea unless you have a very strong relationship with paypal)
