Buyer blocked list - using on other stealth accounts?
 

Let's say I have an account.
I build up a list of 100 bad buyers.

I open a new stealth account.
Is it a super dumb idea to copy this list of blocked buyers and add to the new stealth account?

Is there a limit on how many blocked buyers you can have?
I was thinking... make a website that gives a list of blocked buyers.
Then EVERYONE adds these buyers as being blocked.
(They can't say EVERYONE is connected to everyone!)
Is this an equally dumb idea?
LOL

I’ve done it in the past and I’m sure it’s very easy for eBay to link the accounts.

Mix it up.

I'd not add all of them. In the past I just add the really bad ones to my other accounts and mixed it up a little.

So... my thinking was based around: are ebay super hot and connect everything?
Or are they just mega dumb and run on ancient technology?

We all know they are just dumb, really dumb.
But then, we know these idiots do try to connect some dots.

To be honest, I've only had a handful of bad buyers.
But these guys were filthy disgusting people - that I want to avoid.
ebay have been complained to, full proof given - and they've turned around and said f*** *ff (to me).
One time, I got to know 4 others sellers. We all got screwed, multiple times. We all gave proof of being screwed. ebay customer service just didn't give a toss.

You can not get linked by blocked list.

I've done this with accounts (if they sell the same items) and it hasn't gotten me in trouble yet.
You'd be surprised the number of things eBay overlook.

Some of the entires will be dead as NARU anyway so your list may not always be the same as you migrate it from account to account.

Personally, I never migrate block lists on new accounts until I've had a few sales. My first few items are usually stuff folks aren't interested in making bogus claims for such as envelopes, hair brush, etc.
