Buy with real ebay account but sell with stealth account
 

Hello, I've tried to find an answer to this but still no luck, if someone knows please redirect me, so I got suspended grom selling on ebay, but I can still buy , paypal is not limited or anything, just I can't sell, so I read the stealth guide and I'm gonna make a stealth acct for selling only, I opened a new bank acct, with real info and going to use it for paypal, question is , if I can still buy things with my suspended acct and paying with my real paypal , could the 2 paypal accounts (real and stealth)get linked because my bank info, both accounts have same name, address and everything ,thanks in advance.

Not if you set up the new stealth accounts correctly.

You need to buy the guide and read it until you FULLY understand what is involved before actually making the new accounts.

This will be a FAIL.

Welcome to the forums. Sure you can buy but to sell, all new info.

I also have a suspended account that is a buyers only account. That account has all my original info as the paypal account that is linked to it. Regarding doing a stealth sellers acount, from experience, you should also attempt to buy (and not win) and sell on this account as I was selling on a stealth account for a month and was linked somehow and got booted. Learning from my mistakes, I'm now bidding on things with no intention of winning but showing that I'm trying.. My original buyer account surprisingly is still up but again, if thinking of doing a stealth sellers account, try and make it look as if you're new and wanting to buy and sell. Hope this is helpful.

There is nothing wrong with buying & selling on a stealth account. I've been doing this for six years. Just have a real address, so you don't go emailing sellers to ship elsewhere and get burned doing it!

Its best to have a business stealth account, use attn: with your first name and just alter your address a little, or get a po box

I have been doing it for 3 years too. Although I could easily see issues.

Thanks to everyone, perhaps I do need to read more the guide as I tought I could just open a new bank acct, and use that for my stealth paypal, different acct number but same address, as the guide says we don't want to mess with the bank, right?? So I need to have the acct on my name, thank you again.

your bank account has to be under your name cause it is the law.

paypal cannot see the name on your bank account so put stealth info on paypal and attach the bank account and a vcc on it to verifiy it then start selling.

use the restricted ebay account to buy things with the original paypal that is under your name.

use the stealth ebay and stealth paypal for selling.

I have buying only accounts that go to different addresses. Since I cannot accept mail at a post office in a mismatched name I use those box and mail locations and they dont care about the names.

Some have luck with UPS stores.

The business idea above also works for many.

Hello yeiyei

for the safe future of any accounts it might be better to operate this way.

A paypal associated with a suspended eay account is 'tarnished'.It should not be used near ebay again. It can be used away from ebay.

That then allows you to make your new stealth account without the chance of linking.

LINK becomes the most dangerous word for stealth:juggle:

Hope that helps you,

Hello all,

New here. Also suspended about 6months ago. Lost bay accnt and ppal limited. Emailed ootp and got a response and a call. Reinstated bay for buying only and got ppal unlimited. My question is, can i use this ppal accnt to sell on other sites, or is it likely to get limited from other sales?

Hello viper :yar:

It is possible to use that paypal away from ebay.

I use one such account several times weekly.

Good Luck

Welcome pitviper. Yes it is fine to use for off eb sales - same principles apply for risk - if you have many risky transactions or try fast withdrawals, etc...you can still get limited again so be wise.

All the best.

Thanks.
 

Thanksfor the responses guys. I was really upset when it all happened, but relieved to know there is help. This site has been helpful. Dont sell that much, just extra home items, so not sure stealth is for me. But glad to know i still can use that pp for other sites.

I've used my paypal too since my ebay acct was suspended with no problems, so far =\

Good thread,
Quick question.

Is it worth closing an old account or limited account

I know it takes 3 months to fully become 'unregistered'

Or should I just leave it?

I would let it be and go make unlinked accounts - if the old account is in YOUR REAL NAME however...work with it and grow it.
