The most efficient way of managing 10 different ebay accounts?

[some1o1]

Hey there this is my first post here (and im also new to stealth) :D

I am looking of the most efficient way to manage 10+ different accounts assuming cost is not a problem
1st/ I am planning on creating/buying the ebay accounts and having a corresponding paypal and Dedicated IP for each one.Is there any flaws im my logic here?
2nd/
One big question i have now is how many ebay accounts could be connected to one paypal safely and if one of the accounts goes limited will i automatically get limited on the other ones? (because they use the same paypal)

Any answers no matter how small will be greatly greatly appreciated

Virtual Machines for sure dude.

I thought of using different user accounts on windows, would that be a good alternative to vm?

It sort of has the same effect, the only difference is using a VM makes it a lot easier to manage in my opinion. Instead of logging in and out, you can just launch each specific VM when and as you need it.

To your second question its ideally a 1:1 or 2:1 ebay-to-pp account ratio.

Connecting 10 accounts to 1 PP is an instant link anyways, so kind of pointless to talk about running them all from different user accounts/VMs.

proxy is the way to go.

Personally I like to do it manually. Yes it takes more time, but I just don't trust anything that's automatic or easy.

I'd rather be safe.

Are there any drawbacks to the "multiple windows/mac users" approach to managing the accounts? Is there anything that could compromise the security of the accounts? (namely ebay linking them)

I started that today and it is super super convenient for me

That's fine too.

Separate user accounts keeps browser cookies for each account isolated.

Then logging IPs / preventing overlap is what prevents them from linking once again.

That suffices for eBay/PayPal (for now).

Some of them do share IP addresses. They are big public areas where tons of people probably log into their eb/PP accounts (Ive seen it firsthand), so I'm skeptical to think theyd do an IP - linkage (or else theyd be banning an entire building of users)

The accounts are new now and dont sell anything too risky or have too much activity, so I'd be shocked if they get banned/linked atm. But I do plan to differentiate each account with different items over time.

I was planning on giving them each Fresh IP addresses in the future, would that help? Or has the effect already been done.

Don't even bother with "big public areas" - too much of a risk

Does Virtual Machine solve cookie & flash objects problem?

[SaiJin]

In what way do you mean "solve?"

I think the do, because each virtual machin has all of its own configurations and navigation history, but you have to be sure that each IP for each VM be different.

It depends on your needs / tech knowledge.

Most people separate user accounts are perfect. Other people with more experience prefer VMs and fresh IPs which are generally faster when managing.

If you have 10+ accounts.. faster is better.
