Why Purchase A VBA?

[jamesrick]

I am not understanding the need to purchase a VBA from someone else? Obviously you wouldn't/shouldn't withdraw funds to that VBA you purchased and would still need to put your own create bank account on file to properly withdraw funds so why purchase one? Either way to withdraw the funds you need to create a new bank account and add it to paypal. Can anyone explain the benefits or reasons for purchasing a VBA from someone?

Have you read the stealth guide?

So you can make sure that the PP and EB are in good order before potentially 'burning' a bank account.

If you have a way of cashing out other than a bank account it also means you have get the PP verified.

Makes the ebay and PP account "stronger" - looks more legit in ebays eyes; and as James said, it's a way of verifying your pp without burning a real bank account on an ebay account that gets suspended.

Also ebay does not let you list some name brand products until you verify a pay pal.

With VBP attatched to paypal, less chance of getting mc restroction/suspension.

Once u add a real bank account you can never add it to another paypal account ever again

So it would be a waste to add your real bank account while setting up,your stealth account and than you get 0/0 limits and the account is done

Or you get suspended within a month, So you can just purchase the VBA so that u have a verified account and when the account gets going than u can add a real account

That's only your opinion.

My USA paypal have never had a VBA attached.

My matching ebay accounts never get MC999.

I am real from the start, and take all steps to ensure the accounts are sound.

I just purchased my first VBA a month ago, and did not see the point before, but it depends on your style of selling

I started making many accounts , I changed my whole system to deal with the new rating system, it's a lot easier to deal with eBay when you sell 50 items over 50 accounts

So I had 40 accounts going with no bank account and didn't want to leave them unverified so that's where VBA 's came in handy

Yep, it's so you don't have to burn through real bank accounts. It's for more active stealth sellers. It's not really needed for those with 1-2 accounts but it can be useful.

Really? I agree it makes an acct "stronger" but as far as vero violations and mc999s in general, I have found that ebay doesn't give a sh*t if you have a verified pp, at least not in my experience

VERO items are not to be considered for this topic.

You will get suspended in any case... even if you are ID, finger prints or retinal scanning verified.

Nothing will get you "invincible" when VERO is involved. Forgeti it.

Stealth in general does not deal with vero - it's just a matter of account setup...how you operate is your own business

VBAs are pretty cheap, worth the 10-20 dollars to look more legit in paypals eyes without having to use up a real bank account
