Whats the most ebay accounts anyone has had/managed

[Ebay.slayer]

So, I'm thinking of managing 10 accounts is that hard work?

Thanks

[alpet]

10 is no problem

Thanks Alpet,
My computer freezing up all the time when switching accounts, any suggestions?

[paul0428]

Do you use a laptop if so get a cheap desktop pc i get them for 90 paunds and in every one pc i got up to 30 accounts no freezing.

[Ebay.slayer]

WOW 30 accounts? is that your most at any one time?
Thanks for the PC advice.

i don't even know how many accounts i have in my laptop to be honest x) , but the thing is about managing them professionaly , so that they can't be linked

I hear lots of things - but most of them I treat with a big dollop of sea salt - very few people (if any) make £365,000 a year on Ebay

And if they do then, as sure as eggs are eggs, they're not sharing how they do it

Blackdog,
Thanks for the input, now let me share with you a little secret, before I was banned with my Legit ebay stores,

I made £30 profit a day with 1 store, and I had 10 stores, so 10x£30 =£300 a day which mean £10k a month £120K a year.

More stores equal more sales = More profit

Depends how hungry you are and how much juice you have left in the tank.

For sure can be a headache - takes time, effort, patience, good business model

The mathematics are good

If you are running 10 stores, selling product and not virtual, you are doing very well, very well indeed. But to run a 100 shops? I think not

But good luck with it

at the end of the day what make the difference is who have the right mindset to run x accounts , it's not that easy and you will probably make lot of mistakes at the first time

Right products too that aren't risky and won't trip flags

finding the right Products are pretty simple, just sell what your niche is, and replicate..........

It sounds like you had a good set up - so why did they ban you? (I understand if you would rather not say - but I'm intrigued)

Hi,

went on holiday, thought I set on holiday settings, did'nt log in for 7 days, when I arrived back, loads of open cases, ebay suspended 1 store and the other's followed.
I could'nt be bothered to dispute it or explain. Got a day job a year later, and realised working for someone won't make you comfortable.

Here I am! Round 2

It's a tricky category to sell in though. Lots of dodgy/mislabeled products depending on where you source from. If you're sourcing from anywhere that leaves you with a decent profit margin... you're probably not getting the best products.

Also I've learned that you reach a point of saturation if/when you try selling the same item/line of items across tons of accounts. It's more beneficial to have 1 listing getting 100 sales per day than it is to have 20 listings getting 5 sales per day. I swear, if you have too many instances of your item on eBay you'll reach a point where you're actually getting LESS sales than if you just had it listed once on a good account.

Good luck regardless.. just wanted to share my inputs.

[Ebay.slayer]

Thanks for the Input, much appreciated, however you keep below the VAT theshold by spreading sales.
Which is another headache all together.

Great reply though

Managing 10 accounts is a lot of risk with a lot of work. However, if you do it right and you have a vision it is completely possible.

Hopefully your other 60 aren't being targeted by ebay in the same way they removed the 40...
