Not yet banned even though the accounts are linked
 

I recently set up 2 eBay stealth accounts which were both linked to the same PP for payment and for paying fees. About 3 days ago one of the eBay accounts went down for
"MC081 CIT NOTICE: eBay Registration Suspension - Section 9"
but the account that was clearly linked to that account is still up and has items listing. Will this second account be banned as well? is it just a matter of time?

I wouldn't call them stealth accounts since you linked them to the same pp.

Yes its just a matter of time for the other one - Breach of User Agreement

Now I suggest you make some real stealth accounts please.

Okay whatever you like to call them, I had two set up and linked to the same PayPal with the same information because I was just using it as one account when starting up so I could list twice as much without getting banned, but I must of list to much so it got banned.

I'm being helpful.

I understand why you did that and these things sometimes happen with our first accounts.

Cause of the type of link - Ebay is probably seeing your account as one although you try to trick them with 2 accounts. But really if that other account is to survive you need to baby it or let it rest.

I really suggest you create at least 2 more accounts to replace the linked one you have now.

How many items did you list on the accounts?

Sorry but I don't think my first post really made sense. I created 2 eBay account under the exact same name and linked those 2 accounts to a single PayPal account. I already knew that eBay would know that they are linked and PayPal would know there linked and everyone would know there linked the but the idea of having the 2 accounts was if I had to mary VeRo warnings on one account I could switch to the other and let the other cool down. I also did this so I could list twice as much in the first month or so on eBay. If that makes any sense.

EDIT: I had four items listing on one (Saddlery items listed and a sciphone) in the second I had a spy pen. I listed that stuff over the course of about a week.

OK so ebay account A has the violations and ebay account B has none? If so, then leave A well alone. List sloooowwwlly on B. As NO ID said, make backup accounts as well. Good Luck:peace:

Yerp no violations on account B, you recon it'll last if I go slow enough? I am wondering how you have multiple accounts with only one IP address. I have to unplug my modem to change my IP. Is dial up the only way?

Yep, it will last. Seems to me you kinda know how to play the ebay game. Dial-up is good, ableit slow. Depending on your ISP provider, you can have
that as well as other options;)

Thats what I've been wanted to hear for awhile, I have a Mundial Knife listed on the account right now which should be okay I think. Is Dial Up the only way to have multiple sets of accounts that aren't linked?

No Dial-up is not the only way to keep your accounts from getting linked. It is just easier to get a new ip each time for some. Just use separate user accounts on your computer and make sure your ip is different between logging into each account and you will be fine.

And today the second account goes down, wonderful,
