Re: Safe PayPal limits for young accounts? Stealth & EIN
I have 3 EIN accounts myself and one of them I fully verified the PP account, added the EIN, and let it sit for a week before opening the eB account... I still started @ 10/1k limits
So since I had nasty ebay limits each account had the curve set in place for me. I had to deal with 10/1k limits for 3 months on each account but then two of them went to 100/5k with one going to 250/10k, then 2 months later I got TRS on all of them and they went above 1k listings / $20k in limits.
I did ~300-400$ in sales each month for the first three months, then ~1k after my first increase and after my big increase, I'm doing 5-8k sales per month, per account, without issue.
Best tip I can give on ebay side of things is it's all about the customer and the service you provide; they are your lifeline and those shiny 5.0 DSR positive feedbacks are the key to a highly valued and secure ebay account. Bend over backwards for them in the early months because that's when your account(s) are most vulnerable.
EIN accounts are definitely cool and make you (or at least me) feel legitimate, but don't forget to have a stealth farm in the back for added security |
