multiple ip's at the same time / multiple EBAY accounts

Ebay Finds the ones "I want them to find"... (cant share that info , though)

)

twdell · #**112** 01-24-2008

but as long as you are very careful with your "good" accounts then ebay doesn't find them? i am just really nervous they are going to evnetually shut down my 4 new ones. i have done everything as described on this site. so far my first new account has lasted 48 hours with 3 items listed. how long until i can start to feel confident they will not be closed?

ebayhateluv · #**113** 01-24-2008

HI- Really depends on the items..
-- FYI-- I have my Very first account created with Aspkins guide last year..
BUT.. I will NOT list Veros on it..
(The ones I create tomorrow morning, then list this weekend Veros-- so what if they take em down, I'll just go get 2-3 more Monday morn!)

I have recently enlisted in the '30 accounts in 30 days program'. I plan on creating 30 accounts in 30 days and letting each one sit at least 30 days before listing any items.

I do have a few questions for someone who has registered multiple accounts and successfully sold on them.

1. How long should I wait to register the account as a sellers account? (I am assuming it is not a good idea to register as a seller the same day as initially registering the account.)

2. And if I wait to register as a seller, does this mean I should wait an additional 30 days to list or does the 30 days start from the initial registration? Do you think there should be a waiting period at all as long as 30 days has elapsed since first registering the buyers account? EG- the account is over 30 days old but is not a sellers account. Register today as a seller - could I list today without sending out any red flags?

3. From your experience do you think it matters whether or not you verify via phone or visa card? Is one better than the other? Does verifying via phone look less trustworthy to ebay than a visa verification?

4. And finally, when you register these accounts do you act like you are a new buyer -meaning do you use the search functions to view auctions, perhaps even buy stuff, build some feedback etc? Or do you think it is okay to simply open the account, let it sit (meaning not log back in), and after 30 days register as sellers account and start selling?

I look forward to your responses.

My main ebay account(6000+99.8%/10 years/platinum power seller) was suspended in late november for 7 days. The 2nd ebay account(500+100%/4 years/silver power seller) got linked and suspended a week later. I got the main one reinstated after sending in documents and with help from my account manager. I would like the second account reinstated as well. The problem is...If I contact ebay to get the second account reinstated would they deny and suspend the main one again for breaking their "no use of other accounts while suspended? I sell nothing but VERO items and since there are weekly limitations on VERO listing I can really use the second account.

ebayhateluv · #**119** 02-01-2008

Hello< Hepper!
WOW.. You wanna sell the 1st acct? Exactly what I lost + Im looking for??
Well, seriously- how did you get around them not linking already??
I am assuming you are still on the 50-75% ratio still ?
-- This entire ANSWER will hinge on how you registered that 2nd acct??
--Name/address/phone/locale compared to yours/cc info/ppal acct linked from?/ pics in listings/verbage/ip address/dates you got susp-then date this one activated/same passwords?/ logging in/out from one to the other simultaneously throughout the day?/
+++The fb on the 2nd acct, the neuts u have , the dsr ratings/
--- Good Luck--alot to think about..

sycore · #**120** 02-01-2008

As long as you can still occationally list VERO, I would not risk a 6000+99.8%/10 years/platinum power seller account.
I would simply open another new account, making sure they can not link. and once it is built up a little, use that toi sell VERO, when the powerseller account take to much heat.

ivegotinfo · #**121** 02-02-2008

^ yep thats exactly what i did and i have 10x less feedback that your 6000 account. i started getting too many veros, so i just popped open a few new accounts and started selling there, and now just sell regular things from the main account

hepper65 · #**122** 02-02-2008

On the reinstatement form that I had to fax in there was a part where they ask you for the name of the suspended user ID and any other user IDs that I would like reinstated. At the time I faxed in the form I just put the main one that I needed reinstated thinking that if they saw that I was using another ID they would not reinstate me. Both accounts used the same name, address, credit card, and linked to same Paypal. I think they are aware that I was using my second ID while suspended but reinstate me anyway due to such a minor infraction that got me suspended to begin with which was lifting the small company logo into the listing description.

ebayhateluv · #**123** 02-02-2008

Hepper-- If "I" was you....

I'd let that 2nd acct SIT..
(theyve changed up so many rules/regs)-- Maybe you got Lucky?
Thank your Lucky Stars you got back in...
(Look what we all have to go through in here to get back, and go underground + all)...
>>> What "used to take me" 3-4 hrs/day to generate 30-40 orders/day, now takes me 12-18 hrs sometimes.. no kidding

nubby · #**124** 02-02-2008

Just doubt ,

Does ebay track my ID to compare with registered address?

If not I will use full different address to UK too.

thanks.

mantisinc · #**125** 02-02-2008

Can you clarify just what a VERO item is? I know it's part of eBay's intelecual property rights program, and I've been done for VERO before. But, what items come under it? Any that have IP?

Would listings be taken down ONLY if you abuse the IP, or just if the item has IP owners at all?

Fiev · #**126** 02-02-2008

I'm using FireFox profiles for multiple eBay accounts.

I created a "template" profile with FoxyProxy addon, turned options etc. Just a clear profile ready to ebay.
After that I cloned this profile to 100 identical profiles.
So, each my account is in its own profile, using each own socks proxy (via FoxyProxy addon), and they are completely isolated.

ivegotinfo · #**127** 02-02-2008

using proxies is risky. best bet to dial it up

vero item is a brand name item. listings can get taken down for any reason ebay sees fit. there are thousands of stories of people selling real things and they get veroed.

hepper65 · #**128** 02-02-2008

Yes I think that is good advice from you..I think I got lucky also to get reinstated. Thanks

ebay100 · #**129** 02-02-2008

They REINSTATE???

I suggest you go with a total new one ,let second just sit and then try again.

Chris Hanson · #**130** 02-07-2008

Okay I am going to start using dial in addition to cable internet. My question is this..

When I use dial up how often will I see the same Ip over again?? Is that like a 1 in a million chance of seeing the same Ip address again??

Will I have to keep track of my dial up ip's?

ivegotinfo · #**131** 02-07-2008

yeah i usually keep them all in an exel file. the chances are pretty slim, since the first 2 numbers of the ip range stay the same for most dial in numbers, like 24.53.XXX.XXX the X ones change. but this can also depend on your isp and how many ips they are assigned. i noticed a lot of dialup providers share the same dial in numbers.
usually, yep you'll have nearly 1 in a million chance of getting the same ip. but its still there, i actually caught same ips before and just disconnected and reconnected to get a new one.

ebayvictim · #**132** 02-07-2008

I keep a list of my IP's in an excel file also. So when I reboot my modem, I open the spreadsheet, hit Control F (for find) and paste in the IP address. I immediately know if I've used it before. If it's a new IP I decide which account to log in with and paste it to that column. Takes just a few secs....and no more worries on my part!
