multiple accounts
 

well i am wondering about making another account using the same info. i still have the account i am using but was interested in making another name on ebay too. i will be selling on both and the limit is not an issue with me.

my questions is this....

if i have 2 user accounts under the same name on ebay and everything is the same, can i link both of them to my one paypal account which is also under that same info as the ebay accounts?

is there any risk when doing this?

i know ebay says you are allowed to do this but i was wondering how many people have done this with success and if my first question is even possible.

thanks for the help

yes. you can have 2 ebay accounts in the same name linked to one paypal account.

the only real risk is that, since the accounts are linked, if one goes down, the other will follow.

I think its a good way of maximising your paypal..other forumers disagree and prefer seperation.....its up to you but its an option.

You can Do it I simply Do Not understand why you would want to,,,if you get one Ebay account Suspended the Other Goes as well it in their Policy Statement,,,,

As for Paypal,,,2 Ebay Selling accounts Will NOT increase you Velocity Limits (Withdrawal Limits) and you Being in the U.S.A might be thinking that Maybe it might Double the New Tax Reporting amount to 400 items and $40,000,,From 200 items and $20,000,,,Absolutely FORGET about that,,,NO WAY thats gonna happen,,,,

I Mean,,,,if you think that you will go through Fewer bank accounts,,,Not Really,,,If you think about what I posted above you are still only going to be allowed to Process a Certain amount of money within a Given Time Frame no matter How many Ebay accounts are attached,,,

I Simply do Not see the Advantage,,,,

The proper way to go thru Fewer Bank accounts is to Process your Payments thru Paypal V E R Y S L O W L Y Get those Increases in your Trust Score then,,,Over Time,,you will be able to Process Much larger Sums of Money with No Problems,,,,

Then if Your reason is that you Do Not like Creating Paypal Accounts,,,Maybe I can Understand ,,,a Little,,,,,,,,,,,,,

ya this was just an idea. i recieved a negative mark yesterday and was gunna bomb the account and just make another one but he was kind enough to revise it so im good now. glad to know i wouldnt raise any suspision or anything tho.

thanks everyone who replied
