IP address

dancnbaby · #1 10-29-2013

I know this has been asked before and i have searched and searched but cannot find it.

What is the farthest location you can go and be safe with your IP address? Meaning- if your physical address (that you have on Amazons site) is in FL but your computer you are using is in GA (but they are only 60-75 miles apart) would Amazon's bots think that is strange and shut you down?

I hope that makes sense.

Not a problem with me. I run account all over the country with my home Internet and not having a problem with it yet.

So you basically travel around and use same computer but obviously have the same home address?

What do you do about shipping? Meaning I do FBA and will need to ship some items. If I have a certain home address but am mailing from somewhere else, how does that work?? Any ideas?

Travel?????? I'm not travel anywhere. I'm making stealth account all over the country.

I never use FBA so don't have a question for that

I don't think FBA cares where the incoming products are shipped from. They must get stuff from warehouse all over the place.

Sorry let me rephrase it.

If I have an address claiming to live in FL, but I really live in GA and ship my items from there, do you think it will be an issue?

Should not be an issue. There are many suppliers that will ship directly to AZ for you. We are in Canada and have shipped from NY and Kansas and had no problems.

Are you purchasing shipping through Amazon? Because it will go by the shipping address you have on file with FBA. In other words, if you say you are in California, but buy a shipping label through Amazon and ship from Florida, the tracking will say it originated in Florida.

Originating addresses (shipped from) in NY and Kansas, and yes, used az's UPS account.
