I still got one account that I bought off jbluntz for those of you that remember that far back ..

Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
 

I bought an account from ebayerOG over a year ago and it was working great until the seller basically stole the account back by changing all the passwords on all the accounts.

Or at least that what it seems like. I'd love to message him but this stupid forum wont let me send PMs anymore until I have 10 forums posts.....which why I'm posting here.

I have a bunch I started in 2011 that are still active, so it's possible. About 50% of my first batch back then are still in service.

I've had a stealth account for just about 1 year now and it's going well. I dare say I havn't followed stealth rules perfectly but I guess good enough to survive.

My setup is simple tho as I only have 1 account. If I had multiple accounts I guess it would be a lot trickier to keep things going.

the vintage sellers get the most protection from veros. I got my 3rd vero this week over a pair of r ed m onkey j eans. I am suspended for a week and will lose my account next offense. Time to build my own website!

Website is a good idea, I think it should be a goal for very seller. But make sure you know were you are getting involved in. Having a website compared to selling on eBay are two different things. Evaluate what it takes to have a successful website, there is much more risk involved compared to Amazon/eBay.

But it is more fun too and I am pretty sure you will appreciate every sale much more!

eBay = cashflow
website [for profit] = business

good luck.

I wouldn't dismiss ebay/amazon as not being a business. There's plenty of ebay/amazon sellers who sell way more than other businesses do.

cant make profit on ebay?

Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
 

Yes, that is actually why I opened my own website. And then I get all my customers from my restricted eBay to my website. Take that eBay! Basically, I would email every single customer from the email provided generously by Paypal about my website. That is what they get for screwing us over!

Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
 

Agree. But still I do not consider it as a real business.

Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
 

I make more on Amazon than I probably could on my own website. As for Ebay I don't know, always intended to make a website but couldn't be arsed as yet.

I have for 10 years. I was suspended about 5 times before that. Thanks to the suspension guide.

I have 2 stealth accounts that are up and running for 2+ years...
You need to take care of them and they will last.. :)

Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
 

Im planning to in opening more accounts. I've had problems with getting suspended.

Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
 

How do you manage a setup like this man :juggle: ?? Do you use VPN+Proxy on single PC or do you have multiple PCs?

Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
 

Hi there,

Maybe someone could help me..

I had eBay account that was suspended because of trademark violation.
I've just bought Stealth eBay account to start selling, but I have a couple of questions:
1. I've changed my IP on my mac myself by creating new network location. IP now appears different. I don't believe that is enough, is it?
2. When I change my contact and card details on Stealth Paypal. Can I put the old details that was on my suspended account or should I get a new address, card and phone number?
3. If I list the same items that killed my account before, would they kill my Stealth account as well?

thank you so much.

Ive had an account for 2 years, got shutdown eventually, but most of my accounts easily make it to the 1 year mark with the stealth methods.
