eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

Hello friends,

Let's say I have 4 eBay seller accounts ALL under SAME real name & data (not on Managed payments yet maybe until end 2021)

Each one Receives money from my eBay buyers and Pay eBay fees

eBay 1 (eMail 1) Paypal 1
eBay 2 (eMail 2) Paypal 2
eBay 3 (eMail 2) Paypal 3
eBay 4 (eMail 4) Paypal 4

Paypal 1 is going to ask for docs very soon so I lift the 1800 EUR limit

I don't want the eBay accounts to be linked (at least until MP ...)

1) Is there a way eBays 2+3+4 receive money on Paypal 1?

2) Is it possible to pay fees without Paypal DESPITES previously having already paid fees for eBay 2+3+4?

Thank you for your help in advance, I really appreciate it

1) Yes. In fact you are able to link 8 Eb accounts to 1 PP account. Keep in mind if one of those account get suspended then others will follow.

2) I think you have to unlink EB 2,3,4 from PP 1 for that purpose.

Let's see what expert members have to say about it.

Good job, this is correct. The question is... Is it worth losing 4 accounts if 1 goes down? That's the only question :) Something inevitably always happens. Ebay is too crazy these days. But, it's always fun while it lasts :)

Let me explain my concern in a few paragraphs:

The 4 accounts (eBay/PayPal) are under my real name but separated and not linked.

But as I am approaching to the PayPal limits I will upload legit docs to one of those PayPals where I am going to receive the money from the 4 eBays with 4 different eMails I could add to that PayPal account.

My STRATEGY is:

Now that eBay and PayPal are world's apart (contract ended) I could unlink each eBay from each paypal and then pay the fees with 4 debit cards so I don't get linked if one of the 4 eBays go down !

Or as I already have been paying the fees to the 4 eBay's with the 4 paypals will I get caught and linked?

Any help with the strategy I have described in my last message please?, I think it's a very interesting porpoise ...

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

You can unlink PP and pay the EB fees with a debit card. If you have a legit PP account then you could pass the verification process because you have legit docs.

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

Do you think it could work?, The BIG problem I see here is that eBay could link me anyhow because have been paying the monthly fees to the 4 eBay's with the 4 paypals ...

What do you think?

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

The link exists already OP but Valhalla1's advice to pay fees with a debit card moving forward might help to "alleviate" the hard link as time goes on....possibly

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

Each eBay has its own Paypal and eMail (the 4 ebays/paypals have same REAL name but different adress and DOB).

I think that the only way they could link me is if using the eMail having now on each eBay account to receive payments on the paypal account am going to verify (the one with non ⊗⊗⊗⊗ DOB asking for docs where the money from the 4 eBays will go)

But what if I unlink eBay from Paypal, then CHANGE the eMail adress of 3 of the 4 ebay accounts and put it on the paypal am going to verify to receive unlimited money?

Then I would pay eBay fees with a debit card and the link is not possible

What do you think?, isn't it a good idea?

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

Remember every PP account has an unique number linked to every EB account. Let's say you have an EB account and want to link it to PP account (previouslly linked with other EB account), i'm afraid you will be linked.

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

But what will be linked the 4 eBay's or the 4 paypals?

What about stop selling on ebays 2+3+4 and:

1.Unlink the PayPal paying fee agreement on eBay 2+3+4
2.Cancel consemption to paying eBay fees on PayPals 2+3+4
3.Close PayPals 2+3+4
4.Change the eMail addresses on ebays 2+3+4
5.Set an alternate eBay fees payment method (3 separate cards) for eBays 2+3+4
6.Add ebay's 2+3+4 new eMail addresses to PayPal 1
7.Sell again puting in the eBay listings the new eMails to be payed on PayPal 1

Could this work?

They are closer than you think. I had a mc999 the other day.. i did a chat.. and i gave her a old VERIFIED paypal email address,, which she requested the Paypal email address on... she somehow didn't like it. and rejected me. i immediately rechatted and got a new rep, they lifted the restriction when i gave them a different paypal email address

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

Regarding your first question: 4 ebays will be linked since you want to link them to 1 pp. Some time ago i lost a couple of Eb accounts, i linked them to 1 paypal, later it was suspended, finally EB suspended last one.

Regarding your last question: Yes, it could work. Change email on pp 1, wait a few days, link it to eb 2, wait a couple of days and link it to eb 3 and finally wait a few days and link it to ebay 4. As Moscutter said you will be losing 4 accounts if 1 of them fall down.

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

It's ok for me if the 4 eBays are linked between them because I will sell legit stuff.
But what about paypal?

That's not my strategy, you say changing eMail address on PayPal 1?, why? I find it useless
.
Aren't the eBay's 2+3+4 (I want to move to PayPal 1 and get rid of of their "link" with PayPal 2+3+4 ) the only ones needing of eMail change so PayPal 1 don't discover I already had them used in other paypals to receive and pay eBay fees?.

Please read again my 7 steps and tell me what's wrong. I need to be 100% sure this is going to work. I would not want to lose PayPal 1 now after 20 years on this I am finally going to confirm something wiith my own real details, it would be a complete disaster for me as the only income for my little family and son comes from this, I am an unemployed, Spain is not in a good situation for me to get a job since the 2008 crisis and now the pandemic are putting things even worser than ever ... :(

" I need to be 100% sure this is going to work. I would not want to lose PayPal"

You have been given a lot of good advice - ultimately a lot depends on your operation and interpretation.

Nothing is 100% :(

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

But I don't understand why must I change paypal eMail adress on "Paypal 1" if this is the one I am going to upload docs to!, I guess must change eMail adresses on "eBay 2+3+4+", am I wrong?

Re: eMails + Not linked: 4 eBays/4 Paypals to 4 eBays/1 Paypal
 

As rsot said: "nothing is 100%".

You can do it that way, but you may want to double check prevention methods. If you have any trouble with PP verification docs or many disputes then you could be limited or banned and others PP accounts could be linked due to EB accounts related.
