You do realise that having the accounts on the same computer links them?

Why do you want to do that?

it is the same paypal account for your 2 ebay accounts ??

Accounts shall be managed using different users (if on the same computer) and IP shall be different for each account.

Please, explain better your setup.

Different user account on windows for each account

Going to quote one of my earlier posts.
You can actually use two accounts with one IP, but might be a little risky.

4. Save all cookies/passwords when prompted
5. Profit!

You need to have a really large appetite for risk if you want to do something like that.

Actually I have 2 clients. One is in USA and second one is in UK. I need to work both ebay accounts. I have only one computer so that is why I am asking this question because I do not want to take any risk. If I just add a windows user, is that OK? or i need to purchase Dedicated IP.

You will need a UK IP for the UK accounts. You do not have to worry about keeping ebay and amazon separate.

separate windows accounts does NOT work well for multiple amazon accounts unless you are on a MAC and even then I would proceed with caution. Ebay is fine.

Then absolutely you need an IP to match the country.

cannot open ebay UK with US ip or US ebay with UK ip ?

As many have mentioned, create a new user for each account and get each a Dedicated IP from the same country as the account.

Why considering that? IP matching to country is important - if you try to create a US eb with UK ip, last time I tried....eb would send you to the uk site based on ip. You create US eb with US IP THEN log onto eb.co.uk and launch an auction if you want...

I consider that because in my country I can subscribe to ebay .com/.co.uk/.fr with a thai IP without any issue. I thought it was the same everywhere

So you mean that the most secure way is that I should purchase an ip.

Ebay or amazon will not detect that I am using VPN?

**ilcarletto** · #17 07-14-2016

Reliable VPNs (not overused or with recycled IPs) doesn't have issues.

VPNs are detecable in any case.

The concept is to choose an method that has few problems.

you can also buy a dongle or use the tethering function of your phone to change IP.

You only talk about ebay and amazon, but what about paypal, how many accounts you haave /?
