am I Linked?
 

Hello

I have 2 ebay account one was 2 years old and one is 6 month old. My 2 years old account went into suspension 2 days ago but my 6 month old account seems to be fine. These are real accounts they have the same information, paypal, bank, ip etc etc. So this is the question.... am I linked? Why if they shut down my older account the other one is fine? When do you think will be safe to start selling on that account?

They are certainly linked. But, more details are needed in order to understand what the outcome may be here.

What details do you need?

You are linked and heavily toasted.

You linked yourself the day you opened the second account.

As soon as you bring any sort of attention to this account it will be limited.

You could still possibly carry out some transactions before they limit it though.

BUT if you sell 'high risk' items, game over.

There is practically nothing you can do now. Just list and carry on as normal...but EXPECT the limitation/suspension to come. Don't leave any excess funds in PayPal and don't try to withdraw it all at once...the moment you do...BANG!!!!

Time for stealth.

Is it completely suspended or just limited? And why was it suspended?

1. Both are definitely linked.
2. You can expect AT SOME TIME the other account will be toast.
3. In the mean time, do what you feel can be done with the account.
4. Make back-up stealth accounts and spread your sales.

All the best.

The old one is suspended. I went into a 30 days seller restriction but I keep communicating with my buyers about returns and that kind of stuff. It seems that triggered the suspension.
