Laptop factory-reset enough for new amazon account?

If I have a laptop that has a banned amazon account, would factory restoring the laptop give me a clean slate? Or do I need a new device / machine?

That's enough. CLean install of the OS and absolutely wipe everything.

I heard that Amazon could actually get the MAC address of your laptop, and I double checked that the MAC address is still the same after whole reset of the laptop.

Amazon cant see Mac Address, thats been a myth for forever. You factory resetting the machine is literally starting over. It's basically a new computer at this point.

As long as you completely reinstall the OS that's good enough.

Essentially it's a fresh new laptop

I really like dedicating 1 laptop = 1 amazon account.

You can buy a refurb laptop for about $200-$300 and it's so worth it.

Less headache and more secure

Re: Laptop factory-reset enough for new amazon account?

So can I clarify amazon requires a full system wipe after being banned?

It's not like eb were you can just use a new user account, and fresh IP ofcourse?

To be safe yes a totally new system per account is always advised

They are much better at tracking than eBay is

You also have to be careful to not list the same items for sale again
