Mixing ebay & Paypal Accounts
 

Just a very theoretical question I am asking myself and I wanted to hear from people if they have tried it.

Let's say I have an Ebay #1 and Paypal #1 account.
Same way Ebay #2 and PayPal #2.

Paypal#1 is suspended and Ebay #2 as well.

In order to take the most out of the stealths, I am considering to do the following:

Continue selling on ebay #1, by accepting payments in paypal #2.

Got some hints that it might work for a while -ofc limitation is not far-, what is your view?

Cheers

Please delete/lock this post, I just now realized this has been discussed several times.

Apologies

I did this recently. It worked very well. I chose to stop for other reasons, not because of ebay or paypal.

Keep in mind, there may be holds on the funds.

As yankee said - it might work good.
Either way - doing that is better than just stop selling.

Cheers for the answers guys!

Have you ever tried creating a new Ebay #3 and accept payments to an already used PayPal? Ofc, Paypal will not be linked or used to pay the fees, just to accept payments.

Or even split the sales of one eBay account into different PayPals so PayPal might not flag high income etc?

Take the good paypal, make a new email address in it. Add that email address to the good ebay.
Add that new email address in new listings and test it. See if the money has holds etc...
