Sure you can have 100 eBay accounts, but having 100 eBay accounts w/ fully verified Paypals has to be very time consuming. | If you are not willing to put in the time then you will not reap the rewards.
I have currently 400 fully verified accounts and sometimes make 30-35 accounts in a day.
I have worked 24 straight hours before on ebay/amazon/etsy stuff and take care of 2 teenagers and a hubby. |

I do most actions without even thinking. They're like a routine. Change IPs at the router, save the IP address in a text file, search the file if the IP was used previously, log in, do what I need to do, log out. Change user accounts, etc.
But the only reasons I ever got suspended on eBay was due to foo foo items. Copyright and trademark removals mainly. After moving on to other items, I don't get limited PayPal accounts anymore and neither even calls from eBay or suspensions. |

He forgot to tell his son to keep chasing you |

Salute :-) | If I wanted to go full cheap mode, I could have a ebay and paypal up and running with a listed item for $4.00. That's with phone verification and credit card.
It's not really that expensive. I don't go that route, as I like a prepaid phone not a fwding service, so I spend about 13.00 on my accounts.
Only after I hit my sending limits do I usually add a bank account. |

What does it cost you?
You can go all out with VBA's if you want, but not necessary to sell. If you really want a strong account, you can eventually add a savings account to it, and that doesn't cost anything as well.
You can add a po box or mailbox if you want, but I don't ever. I use stealth return addresses(real addresses, but I do not occupy them), so if a package ever gets refused, I'm SOL, but I prefer to keep my identity stealth. I have a method I use for returns if I care enough to want it back(sometimes I just refund and let them keep it, it really depends on their attitude and reason for return). |

OK, I do wear a tin hat. But I can say that I have followed aspkin's guide past the dotted line and not had ebay suspensions.
Issues have been buyer stupidity most of the time.
Heck, I never updated FireFox after 3.1. LOL. It was reported as buggy. So I left it.
Also, very very very early on, I changed to MAC for main accounts.
That MAC system thrives on stealth in my workings with it.
It's in the user handling. So I guess getting more proficient would come into play.
Now, if I could tame paypal :eek: |

Take a portion of your profits and set them aside to insure your future.
With eb and pp changing something all the time I want to be prepared for any changes that come.
I value my accounts in several thousands of dollars worth and have a 2003, several 2007, 08, 09 accounts that are worth a ton of money just sitting there.
One person sold a 2007 account with 1200 feedback for 15,000 not too long ago so I have several to match that.
Invest in yourself and your future, build an arsenal of accounts as back up.
Actually wish I had made more in 09-10. |

You have spend from the start to bring money to you.
You work in increments to get going.
It's hardly an overnight thing. But careful steady work to get to whatever your goal is. |
| Futuremogul888 | 02-23-2013 05:29 AM | What is $50 to get an account up and running if you are going to make 10K off of it. If you can't make a profit off of opening another account, stick to what you have. Think of each Ebay account as new locations for your business.
On a side note Shottas is the Jamaican Scarface. Awesome movie |

The one account you let sit for a year and got the limits drop scares me to death, now I find myself double checking to make sure I at list list 10 items or so on each account in rotation. Others I list far more but if you have accounts sitting I would toss a few things on them once in a while myself. | With 400 seller accounts, how many addresses do you have, what would you say is the most or safe amount of addresses you can use per account, and # of seller accounts you can link to a paypal account? |

| GreenBean | 02-23-2013 05:43 PM | Stay on the topic please.
It's not a discussion of the costs or how accounts are established.
It relates to what happens AFTER they are active.

| ateep22 | 02-23-2013 06:44 PM | this is actually very useful...talking about how to make stealth with specifics instead of just saying "try hard and keep reading the thread". i pmed a guy about buying a vcc for $20 and just found out you can get one for $4...unless theres a major difference between the two, which ill have to learn, id say i got some good info..thanks don corleone....sorry.."happy face guy holding back to topic sign" |

When you purchase from Joe Blow on buymyvcc.com he could care less what you think, using it for, or intend to do with it, and who know if they are legit, could be linked, etc.
I would also like to add that when people try to create the cheapest fastest account, and want to make $10,000 in the first week selling they are often screwed out of everything and have to start over. Do it right, and to a "T" the first time. |
| ateep22 | 02-23-2013 07:13 PM | You are right, pay some more money and get more quality...makes sense...i was just saying thanks for at least learning that a vcc can cost as low as $4, so when i compare 20 to 4, i know what the differences are.. | | All times are GMT -5.
