Old Ghost town accounts on Ebay still alive...
 

Just finished my Ebay Stealth book..great source of information..HIGHLY RECOMMEND BUYING..wait i mean YOU MUST GET THIS BOOK..

My question is i have like 10 old ebay accounts, all made over last 10 years..some "closed", "suspended", (1) recently "reinstated" out of nowhere, and (3) "open" unscathed or "tainted" accounts..the 3 that are still open are like ghost town accounts..years old & no bank or credit info attached..just basic info remain...Name, Email, Shipping and Return Addresses, etc.

So, these 3 open old accounts..what do i do with them? All opened pre 2007..and 25+ feedback on each..

-If they have any information entered that is on "closed or suspended" accounts..are they just useless?

-Or can the info currently on them be changed out to new unlinkable information?

-Or maybe current info can be tweaked slightly to not match exactly to any info on bad accounts?

I feel like i have discovered 3 hidden diamonds in the sand and don't know what to do with them and don't want to touch them until I get professional forum or Aspkin advice..

Sometimes on old accounts if they haven't had any activity on them for years the first time you try and use them or change the information Ebay will think that the account has been "hijacked" and limit the account until they can verify the information. Personally I would start with one of the accounts and buy some smaller things over the span of a month or so. Let the items get shipped to the address that was on the account. Then after at least 30 days then I would try and change some of the info on it.
