Using Paypal Stealth Account to purchase Wholesale?
 

Hi,

I was wondering will it raise red flags if I use my stealth paypal account to order goods from a China wholesaler? Do you think paypal will limit my access ask for Invoice/ Supplier Info?

Thank Everyone... i love this site :)

You do not want to use a Paypal account to order stuff from China if you want to use that account to accept payments from Ebay sales. Yes it will get you limited very quickly. You should have one account that you just use for purchases from China and one for your Ebay sales.

Not a Good Idea, as Repeated here on MANY Threads

Most likely Nothing will happen to your Paypal accounts, Remember you are Buying with your Paypal, NOT Selling. However ANY Ebay sellers accounts that may be associated with that Paypal account are TOAST. This had to happen to me a Few times before I figured it out.

I've had problems even with a paypal not linked to any ebay account, I'm through with paypal for buying overseas even with a creditcard I've had problems since paypal is the merchant, tradetang deposit or dhgates e-wallet are probably the best way to go.

Hm...I've been buying from DHGate with my Paypal that I use for accepting payments. It's been like this for about 5 months now with no problems. How would it affect your eBay? It hasn't effected mine yet.

There are A lot of items that you can buy overseas that are Ok, But as soon as you start to purchase Questionable items that show up for Sale in your Ebay listings, Believe me Your time is Limited on Ebay, I have had it happen to me Over-n-Over, Again-n-Again, It took me a while before I made the connection, If you have been getting away with it, Believe me Count your Blessings, and change your Methods, it will catch up to you

Find a wholesaler you can trust and use WU or MG.

I had an Ebay account linked to a Paypal account "Before i bought Ebay Stealth " and i bought for years on DHGate never had any issue with it. I never bought anywere else with it tho. When i buy somewere else i use the credit cards only. No paypal!

I would not buy dhgate stuff through PP. Soooo much phake stuff on dhgate and paypal knows this. Dont buy stuff with paypal from dhgate and then list things on the ebay linked to the paypal more importantly. This is more geard towards High Risk Vero items tho. "which everything on dhgate pretty much is" I would just avoid buying with paypal altogether as this would add another layer of protection to your stealth. Like i said before find a buyer you trust and use Western Union or Moneygram.

WU is already covered by escrow on dhgate, tradetang, and others like ali-express. Once you send your money WU to you tradetang account or dhgate e-wallet then you can pay for your orders just like with paypal the confirmation is just as quick with out the hassle of paypal investigating or reversing your orders which happened to me many times, don't worry I got paypal back for it, that's my own secret though, I like being able to slap paypal upside the head all on my own, it just feels good.

Thats the million $ secret ;)

I used if on ali for years with no issues, but no they dont accept paypal and many other wholesale sites are soon to follow this.
