Moved from US to Ecuador - Selling on eBay Possible?

John_Thomas · #1 11-09-2016

Howdy, I am new to the forum and have been reading through many of the threads over the last week. However, my situation is a bit unique, So I thought I would post a few questions.

I was born and raised in the US and created eBay / Paypal account in 2003 for selling items on ebay. Feedback on eBay is about 350 positive. Recently, I moved to Ecuador to work on a farm and I am selling items with my brother in the US on eBay and he is shipping in the US.

Unfortunately, I closed my bank account before leaving the US, so my paypal account is unverified... I was hoping someone here could let me know what kind of restrictions I will be up against, with regards to number of items sold per month/year? As well as PayPal transfer restrictions and limitations.

Currently, I am just sending money via paypal to people in Ecuador to pay for food, etc. It is a small operation with about 20 items sold per week and $200-$400 / week in PayPal revenue. I would be happy making about ~ $20 / day here. Which in Ecuador will buy you enough food for a week.

Thanks for the help!

Also, is it a good idea to purchase a VCC from here and use it for unverified paypal account that's 15 years old? I am using an Ecuadorian IP address, so wouldn't it look suspicious? I don't know...
