So my stealth account is nearly there.....

[scottymurs12]

I want to start selling on at least 10 feedback before I raise any concerns.

Could I use my stealth account to buy from my normal account (not linked) and give myself feedback and send payments to myself?

Too risky?



Thank you

I would NOT advise you to do that. 1 account suddenly buying 10 items from the same seller, if you were eBay would you get suspicious?

Buy some small goods phone accessories, iPod cables etc for 99p from other eBay sellers to build feedback. You need to invest money into stealth for it to work.

That's a very good way to get two accounts taken down OP - If that's what you are trying to do then way to go

its not the 1 account buying 10 things from one seller that would set them off, this happens all the time. i frequently buy 1 specific item from the same guy all the time. its the fact that its a new account getting 10 sales from the same guy that would set off the alarm.

the ONLY way you would get away with this is if you had say 10-20 OLD accounts with good buying history. then MAYBE you could do this

Not recommended - especially when you seem new to stealth. It can be done but best to have solid understanding AND multiple accounts.

Might as well stop where you are.

You will get caught and will destroy the work you did.

Thanks for the replies, I think for the sake of 10-20 pound I might as well do it properly really! Just a thought really to get my account up and running
