I always use 1 pc per account. You can get them used for like $100 or so. You are only using these to sell online, you do not need 16GB memory and the Radeon 200,000,000 (or whatever number they're one) graphics.
You only need 1 screen, keyboard and mouse. You can get a switch (mine handles up to 4 pc's) for $30 or so.
And DVD's - BOX SETS ESPECIALLY - are a red flag by themselves on a new account where cookies are cleared daily and eBay is constantly asking for verification.
But PayPal asking for verification is not abnormal. My guess is this is a routine verification. You said 5 sales, but not how much each sale was and it would be hard to guess the time period since we don't know how long it took each listing to sell. But it must have been within 1 month. Selling 5 used dvd's at $5 each probably wouldn't trigger anything. So, my next guess is that these are box sets that sell for around $100 each.
So, for the month, PayPal sees 5 high risk items suddently being sold for a good amount of money. That could very well trigger a verification.
Or am I totally off about the dollar amounts and the items?
