Ebay account 03 150+ Feedback

[kirkie]

My mate has an account he will let me have 03 account 150+ feedback

Whats the deal with trading with acquired accounts?

I had the same situation and got limited for selling too fast and made too much money then they shut the account down.
Paypal will shut you down quick on an older account because they know you can do a lot more with it. dont ever think they are not watching because they are. paypal is dumb but not stupid.
I would sell slow because they will treat the account just like its new when it has a spike in new listings.
You can say screw paypal on that account and take any payment you wish, thats worth it in itself to have an older account.

Deal is the same for all accounts - prepare in advance for possible screening limitations.

Go slow - does not matter about feedback. Choose your IP carefully and research well.

Age does NOT equal immunity.

YES EXACTLY. The older accounts are not a gift from God anymore. They go down just like new ones if you don't use it properly. You need to know ALL the info about how the account was created and have it on had for quick access. I know this first hand. I had an 2004 account go down the tubes from an eBay verification call that I could not answer correctly.
