Ebay purchase account closed. Need new account to purchase on Ebay, not sell.
 

Folks,

I have a slightly different situation. I am using Ebay to purchase and dropship. So I buy extensively on Ebay (around 200 items per day). I had 3 accounts for purchasing on Ebay. I have around 10 staff who login from different computers to purchase. Ebay used to regularly send warnings that they found unauthorized use of my account and I had to reset my password.

Generally I was always able to reset my password and continue purchasing. But few days back, after getting the warning for unauthorized use when I tried to reset the password on one of the accounts, Ebay told me that they have permenently closed the account because the unauthorized use has happened many times.

Can I try with a new account purchase from here ?

My other question is dosen't Ebay track IP addresses ? Even after I buy a new account won't they link the new account with my existing 2 old accounts ?

I need atleast 2 more accounts to purchase from Ebay. I am not looking to sell on Ebay.

Please advise.

Thanks.

Why not have each of your staff use their own eBay accounts so no single account will be accessed by multiple users at the same time?

My staff will not agree to do that.

Of the 2 accounts I have for buying, one is from 2005 and a very stable, old account with 10,245 feedback score (yellow shooting star).

I opened a new account with the same information as my old account. After buying 3 items, Ebay suspended it saying they have noticed some risky behavior. But my main account and 2nd account are still working fine for buying.

But I need 2 more accounts for buying.

Thanks.

I could just give you a few free accounts but they are new. You definitely need to start slowly.

What you can do is to spread out purchases on multiple accounts so they don’t appear to be making lots of transactions from the get go.
