Advise on a family ebay account
 
My aunt gave me her account to sell on ebay including all necessary associated PP account transferred to me, however she uses it occasionally to buy stuff on ebay (Not sell). Will this be okay? She lives a few streets from me.. like 20 min walk


I am worried about using the same account at 2 locations. What do you think

Not really a good idea to get family involved.

What will you say to her if the account goes down?

Are you using another ebay account already from your house?

Trust me it is not worth the headache. Better to do it all on your own.

Learn stealth and then either a) make your own accounts or/and b) buy from sellers here. Don't muck around with family and friends

@JamesNorth101

She is aware of the consequences. I schooled her about stealth and the risk involved. Shes not into selling, she only buy stuff occasionally

@pokerpro

Yeah, I used to have a business account with them from my house which was suspended and I am going stealth with this one. New computer and dongle. No association with my address even though it will be operated from my house. I dont think there will be any risk from my end as far as contamination is concern unless they can track my Long and Lati and connect it to a previous Long and Lati

Is there anything else I have not dealth with?

Why not just create your own stealth....

Because that takes time, effort, etc.

Though she is aware of the risks and she only buys occasionally.....how would she feel if you became bannedq and they prevented buying from that account?

Re: Advise on a family ebay account
 
I just bought one ebay/paypal account on here yesterday, still waiting for it to deliver.

Going by all the stories I have been reading about PayPal shutting down accounts and asking for verifications as well as the longevity of the account in order to be able to list proper on ebay, I decided to explore opportunities around me by buying ebay/paypal from people I know first. I would pay my friend for it but my BEST FRIEND would never take money off me for a favour. My aunt wont take a penny from me either. It is love.

Although while I always show gratitude, we generally look after one another in our circle. My success is their success, joy and happiness.

Creating my own stealth account is not the strategy I wanna take, I believe in division of labour, I am a businessman and when I get back to the level I was pre suspension, i'll be able to employ a dedicated staff for stealth creation.

For now, I wanna operate my stealth with confidence that I can stand by any information required by PayPal.

That is not an issue. Not a big deal. She can do without ebay. We'll only joke about it if it get banned and she'll do all her best possible to see how I can get another ebay account.

Im.a.relatively new member but you have been advised against using family info by some long term members who have been doing what they do for years.
I guess its ultimately your decision what you do.
Ive gone by the book on this forum and with all.there help, ive just got my fifth.account up and running and for now things are running smoothly for me. :-)

for what its worth, even if you do get banned on her account it is soooo easy to set up a new buyer account for her at her address. I have 2 buyer accounts set up for myself and wife who have both been permanently limited from paypal and ebay under under the address.

Thanks, I think buyer account is not a big deal. I can setup a buyer account, make several purchases many weeks before it could get ban, if at all it will get ban. To pple like my aunt ebay is not as valuable to them as their Facebook account

The premise of my question was to establish the risk involve if we accidentally use the account at two locations. Me as a contact seller and she as browser

Personally i couldnt be bothered with the hassle. Been there done that using family info.
As easy as it is to use a familys name or address is just as easy as making up your own.
Just my opinion as ive had two family linked accounts and they both ended in disaster :-(

Oh! you dont get it...

This is an aged account, setup like several years ago. I have no risk exhausing the limit in 2 weeks compared to babysitting a new account.

JamesNorth101 11-20-2014 01:12 PM

Re: Advise on a family ebay account
 
If it has never been sold on then its as 'aged' as a brand new account.

An aged account may be safer...but not safe. Accounts have gone down for people who have had accounts for years.
As said...its your decision. I have purely just given my opinion.

Not in the same capacity as an account opened tomorrow. Their digital footprint is massively miles apart. My last account was no diff from this and shifted over £4k worth of sales in its first 60 days, no trouble.

If I can do the same with a stealth opened tomorrow, then I have many options.

JamesNorth101 11-20-2014 01:29 PM

Re: Advise on a family ebay account
 
And what happened to your last account which sold over £4k of stuff without an issue to mean you now need a new one?

taerese 11-20-2014 01:31 PM

Re: Advise on a family ebay account
 
Look guys, I dont gamble, I dont play lottery but when it comes to business, I take risk, calculated risk.

I just wanted to know the risk involved if while I am selling she is browsing in her location.

Anyway, I think I found the solution. I'll just change the password.

Thanks.
Peace!

James. I was trying to establish that an aged account in that capacity has a better chance of survival when stuffed with listings than a new account created tomorrow.

What happened to it has no connection to its listings. Its a learning curve.

JamesNorth101 11-20-2014 02:12 PM

Re: Advise on a family ebay account
 
A new selling account is a new selling account.

It makes no difference if it was a buying account for 5 years before being turned into a selling account. It will still be treated in the exact same way as a brand new selling account in eBay and eBay bots eyes.

The limits will still be 10/£650 and you will still need to build up slowing to selling the sort of volume you want to sell at.

Just off the title alone thats a major no no. :nono:

Never ends up good. What happens when you sell alot and get asked to supply a EIN or SS? ....never a good idea to use this method.

Not good stealth at all.


Always have FULL control of your own accounts.

What are you going to od if your Aunt ever gets a strike against her name?

The account is then damaged.


Not good.

By all means take risks. I agree this is business.

But if you are suddenly going to crank up an account that you describe as aged that has NO recent history, ebay AND paypal may react. Where's your plan to overcome what they do?

You can not, and you should not be over-confident you can meet their demands.

If one account was lost, then you may go out and repeat the same problems.
Have you even thought of that?

All accounts need to have baby-sitting to make the grade.
