after reading the book, i still have some questions
 

as i mentioned before,i have a pc which i reinstalled windows on it and a new modem=new mac address for it.
1. my friend gave me an existing account on amazon. she opened it about 8 months ago and NEVER used it. maybe posted 2 items for sale. it is a verified account. what's the right way to use this account?
2. what should i avoid in selling the same items? the brand or the specific model?
3. how can amazon link the the brand name i was selling in my original account to this one? can't two individuals sell the same bag/toy?
4. bank account: amazon demand a usa bank account and i am using payoneer.com for that. payoneer are asking for a card activation using an ID picture. how can i go past that when i am opening a new account? do you have any Recommendation on other sites to open a us account?
5. i cannot obtain a new phone number, can i use any phone number? like my parents home number?
i was never contacted by amazon via phone, according to them (in an e-mail i got) they cannot contact me via phone because i live outside the us.
6. i am a bit confused about the pc "user account" - first the book say that user account only covers browser cookies and flash objects but not mac address or fingerprinting but then two pages down, you have an explanation on how to create a user account.
can anyone clarify?

thank you!

Just for future reference you might get a better response if you go over different subjects one by one, then grouping up 1 million things on one post it kind of gets jumbled up in then no we wants to respond I'm just being honest with you!

But here, hopefully I can clarify a couple things that is you have a misunderstanding about and if you don't feel free to ask more questions on a one on one type subject base


1. There is really no specific way you need to treat the account, but smart and wise way!

2. You asked what items should I avoid? While we don't know what you're selling? If you're referring to heavily branded items then please be wisely on listing them!

3. They can link him to you using the same picture as you did for your previous listing also anything else like texts or anything that resembles your other account that you were selling on.

4. I have never dealt with Payoneer so that question I could not tell you.

5. If all possible, try to use a real physical cell phone, maybe you might have a friend that doesn't have an Amazon account, nor wants too maybe you could do that as an option.

6. Yes, you need to make another user account on your PC. To create a user account. To open User Accounts, click the Start button , click Control Panel, click User Accounts and Family Safety, and then click User Accounts. Click Manage another account. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

Please appreciate that you come on the board with 7 questions - people are busy on the weekend/weekdays...many don't just spend on the boards to answer all questions - and 7 in one shot! Be patient and await replies.

Don't forget to thank those who reply like sln351.

I am not a fan of people writing "No one? Really???"

i am sorry if i offended anyone,
i am just trying to get back on amazon ASAP. i am really sorry for all the nagging :)
thanks for the help,my head is like mash potato right now.
i don't want to take any risk with this,amazon is my only income at this time and i am out for more then a month now ):
so thanks again

Re: after reading the book, i still have some questions
 

thanks!
i always list items that are in amazon catalog, i don't change anything.
do you recommend to add pic/add item description and stuff with my new acc to avoid any connection?

Re: after reading the book, i still have some questions
 

Okay then you should be fine, yes, I recommend you add any pic to your listing and a good description, but you have to word it differently and take a different picture as well that you have ever used.

Re: after reading the book, i still have some questions
 

1. No, don't do it

Re: after reading the book, i still have some questions
 

2. Not a huge deal if multiple sellers. Not a big deal if its a legit item. Course amazon you never know :)

3. My guess is you are being linked another way

4. Make a bank account online :) BOA CHASE

5. GOOGLE OR TRAC PHONE

6. You need a VMWARE not a different user account. I run a lot of amazon and all on VMWARE :)

Missed the flag grrrr
