Using old ebay as reference
 

Hello guys.

Just had another stealth go :(
PP is so ****ing annoying :tears::tears:

So I got thinking , In the past when I have phoned up to request higher limits on accounts on a few occasions I have been asks if I have any other ebay accounts , I think they mean to reference.
In the past my gf has made a new account with high limits because she had another private account with high limits.

Would this work in making a new high limit ebay if you linked to a ebay that had a 100% positive feedback and high limit but was not selling anymore due to no paypal?

Any info would be great guys.

Then you would be linking this account to hers and potential destroying her account too.

Shrug - guess it depends how well you like your gf.

Stealth purpose is to operate LINK free.

Sorry probably didn't explaine clearly enough :)
I have had a pp go down attached to a stealth with 100% positive feedback and high limit.
So would I be able to make a new stealth Ebay same details apart from address and link it to that out of use Ebay . Or do eBay get a message from PayPal notifying them that they had to close the pp because of suspicious activity?

Basically do eBay know if a pp has been limited or could u say you just stopped using it ?

It sounds like it may work, but why risk it?

The link will always be there.

Better to start new accounts and let then grow organically in my opinion. Limit raises will come.

If you create a NEW account with all the same details (apart from address)
You can still be linked to the account, if your name used is not a common one, if you combine that with the D.OB that is.

If you use your partners ebay that has high limits, and you make a new account, and tell ebay that the other account is also yours, they will reduce her limits and increase yours a little higher. They wont be the same as they are now.

You wont be able to sell items that are the same on both accounts.

If your ebay gets shut down, because of what you are selling, or your seller performace gets bad etc.. you will affect her account as well.

Hi bunneh ,

This is nothing to do with the gf's acount.
This will be new stealth using old stealth to get higher limits off the bat.
So old acount won't bring down new acount as old has no PayPal and is just left to die.

Well no harm in trying then, only way i can see it going down is if the old ebay owed ebay money and / or got suspended for any reason.

It could in theory work. No harm in trying, just be a bit more cautious with the account than you would be normally
