Amazon Account on Hold?

polf · #1 04-27-2013

Hey guys!

So one of my BUYERS account got put on hold, truly i don care.
BUT i have to ship a item to one of the buyers of mine.

So my question is:
Is there any possible way i could re-buy the item and ship it to the address without the newly created account being banned?

-Would it be safe if i used a different billing address than the shipping address? obviously i would go through the cleansing and be using a VPS

***Also guys i am just wondering if anyone has more experience, WHY does amazon put accounts on hold? I realized if i dont use a VPS-since my MAC address would be then showed a account gets put on hold, or if i try to use a VPN, then they put the account on hold. Any others? ***

You could try an address variation. I have used different billing address from shipping address on AZ.com for BUYING only (personal experience).

Thanks! Was wondering that exact reason, if anyone had experience.

Also, just wondering what do you mean by address variation? Like Just a different address for billing?

Thanks!

The OP wants to know about an address for selling account though.

Is that not too risky your way for a selling account?

Sorry guys! Little confusion, I want to know is it safe to use a different Billing address than a shipping address on a BUYERS account.

Above he had answered this, but i was wondering if it would still be safe even though there is another account on "hold" with the address that will be used for the above account as the shipping address?

Hope this isnt too confusing

So you have

123 amazon street, amazonville that has at this address

a buyer's account . This is on hold correct?

You want to use an address variation of this address to ship an item and not get linked?
So in effect you are using the held address as a selling account because you are shipping an item
