Ebay account suspension problems
 

I have been selling on bay for many years now with very few problems with my account. a few days ago i received an email from Ebay that my account had been suspended due to the number of cases that had been opened against me, most of which were by people with fewer than 5 feedback. I sell mostly used electronics on Ebay with sales averaging 7500 dollars a week, and am looking for a way to do this kind of volume without having issues with my accounts.

Welcome to the forums. This forum is based mainly for those who want to get back on eb ay and pa yp al (+Am az on) safely without being linked to old accounts that are suspended.

While it is always a good idea to go stealth, my recommendation on doing this kind of volume would be to spread the sales over several accounts.

All the best.

How exactly would it work with buying on one of the stealth accounts?, or is it better to use real accounts for buying and stealth accounts for selling?

i wouldnt use buying for stealth accounts bc if you buy something and enter a different shipping address it raises a flag with PayPal so i would use real for buying stealth for selling

You can buy with a stealth account, although you will need to get creative with the address used. PO Boxes work great (but add a new monthly fee) as does a variation of your real address.

You are going to get hit with the pp 1099 issue soon so why not spread your selling out over several accounts?

By you selling in a tough category you really need to look down the road and prepare for it by getting accounts going now for later on.

Those 5 fb buyers are a problem for everyone.

You need to buy the stealth book, I think some of your confusion will be cleared after reading it.
