How many ebay accounts do you have?

Just curious about the "limit" of accounts using real ssn first and on the backend and EIN w/ssn. I want to create more accounts with new EIN's, I'm just scared of linkage since the name has to match the taxpayer data.

To answer the titles. I currently have 4 in my real name in various versions.

Are all these accounts selling similar items? I can't really say much a fixed limit more than 1 is always a risk

If you asked someone here before MP they would say they have about 385 accounts

Now it's less.....

Having more accounts do not mean more sales?
why bother?

Only one buyer and one seller. I did have more but they all got banned. It’s not worth having no more than one seller and one buyer.

They do if you spread and rotate sales in a creative fashion - also helps avoid break in sales if an account goes down,

This! I keep them alive and top-rated. I used to attack the market with the same items and change the listing completely. I also keep multiple just in case a bot does the counterfeit policy violation.
