Question Selling too much / too fast?

So I had my first sale on ebay over a year ago, and I have sold 8 items ever since then over the course of 12 months. All of those items were just used computer parts. But just the past 2 weeks, I've gotten into buying and reselling in bulk. My account has limits at 500/25k and I have sold 25+ items in the past 2 weeks. I have heard of cases where people need to send ebay proof of identification and residency. I've read ebay seller guides that say to take it extreme slow in the first 90 days and not have any fixed price listings or growth explosion. However, it has been over a year since my first sale. I'm wondering if I should really slow down and stick to the online guides because I just got into selling or does it not matter because it's been over a year since my first sale. I can't really send then identification or proof of residency either because I'm using a sudo-name and address because I'm selling some high risk items. Any advice is highly appreciated.

Thanks a lot for your time.

since you had a break, i'd suggest to take it slowly - but how slow is slow? like listing 2 items, then 3, then 4 and so on. That's what i do with my accounts that are 'inactive'.

Yea, I agree with the 10 account approach. Heck I have even handled 3 times of that.

I really think better be safe than sorry is a good rule of thumb.
