Multiple non-banned accounts?

[Foxhound]

I can't find anywhere on amazon that you cannot have more than one account in good standing in their TOS.

Anyone have a link?

I have separate businesses with separate EINs that are in good standing (knock on wood). I've never been banned. I couldn't find anywhere where this was a TOS violation.

I guess you can always send them a email or phone them about this issue.

I thought it was similar do eBay - if your running non stealth you can have as many as you want,

I wonder reason they have for such strict requirements. I was going to use an EIN for one of my accounts and my social for my personal account but there goes that idea.

At one point HGWA considered requesting Amazon allow him two business accounts if he could offer them a good reason.
Dunno the outcome....
