paypal account for already established ebay

[jack702]

So I have the opportunity to buy an ebay account already established 8-9 yrs old and 20k feedbacks.

My problem is I need a paypal account to link with it. How could I get another paypal account? I have a paypal account in my name/business name but its already linked to another ebay account that has had some issues.

In addition to this I'm also starting stealth but that will be a sloooow grueling process and I need to have more sales to survive.

Probably not the best idea to purchase the eBay account, the only way i would is if it was a price like $200 because making another paypal account and adding it to an already established eBay account is just a gamble, it may work a couple months or more but it could also get suspended in a day.

Its not a stable solution adding mismatching ebay and paypal accounts, i always see this as a temporary solution, and would only do it if it was my eBay account, i wouldnt purchase it

because I was wondering how this would work first and if it was a good idea to buy an established account and attach a new paypal to it. If it is going to cause me problems, then I'd rather not waste the time and money trying it.

stealth is OK, but going to take me awhile to build up a few accounts. In the meantime I have bills to pay, kids to raise, etc.

On another note, it seems lately that more and more bad advice is being dished out.....not good.

I wouldn't touch that account unless you're buying the Paypal account linked to it also. You also shouldn't start using that account unless you're planning to continue selling what the previous owner was selling.

As per above, I would get the account if is cheap.

It is a gamble really, but then if it is cheap to buy, it would be a cheap gamble for some big gains!

No sensible seller would be making a sale like that.

Attaching a paypal to an existing ebay account will have issues.

Better to not suggest things that will create issues for sellers.
