creating new accts

[FUKEBAY!!]

alright guys i am going to create around 10-15 accts this evening, question is im going to be clearing cookies/ip addys between each new acct, HOWEVER im just going to be making basic buyer accts tonight, i plan to eventually make these into selling accts after i buy some prepayccs is this a problem if i donot make the actual seller account tonight ??? or can i always go back and do it as long as on a new ip ??? help....someone hold my hand and guide me....lol....thanks guys !! :D

probably would be better if you go back and do it.

It doesn't matter at all. If anything, it's better if you don't make it into a seller account right away. New sellers usually get to know eBay better before selling.

I AGREE but how will u surpass phone/credit card checks for even a buyer account ?

[FUKEBAY!!]

phones i got taken care of.....cc checks, when 1st opening a buyer acct u dont have to input any of that....so....

created an account the other night to try and list something and was immeadiately asked for a CC AND bank account. Went to put something up for sale this am on an account set up last week and all it asked for was a PP account to pay for seller fees, so I followed the links and set up a PP account using the GC that I had gotten to set up the ebay account. They didn't even make me agree to the $1.95 fee and four-digit code. Go figure? I think that both PP and EB have rotating or randomly applied requirements for setting up accts. So IOW it's the luck of the draw many times IMO

I have thought the same. That ebay is using a system that "flags" on certain data when signing up or selling. Trigger to many flags and automatic "bot" suspension, trigger a few and you might get a review by real live T&S monkey, don't trigger any and you a left alone.
Here is where the variables come in. Say if using a gift card starting with 4888, that triggered an automatic suspension 100% of the time. Then we would change our tactics and use different card. Now let's say it only triggered auto suspension 90% of the time. You would never know what was triggering the suspesion so you could not change your tactics.

im simply opening buyers accts right now, ill upgrade these to sellers accts later, my only question is when i choose to upgrade them im assuming as long as im on a new IP and cookies cleared im ok ?

That seems to be the best approach from my personal experience.

HI- Yes, try to keep track of the ips where you made the accts- so you go back to the SAME ips to match the SAME accts.
--BTW--you didnt create all accts on the same ip did you?
--WATCH out even at Public Libraries, sometimes they share ips...
IF all are created on same ip.. chances are slim others will stay up, if 1 goes down,, they will be linked, (by ip, by same date/time
-by same type email
-by same type phone
-by same type (well, you get the point)-
**THE very first 20 accts i made,back in July, all went down but 2 on 1 sunday..)
