How many ACTIVE stealths/accounts do you run at the same time?

[GhostWhoWalks]

Just a few ?'s.

I have a dozen right now, and I am creating about 20 today + another dozen this week still. The only thing I hate about doing these is the same routine for all of them during a 10 hour day time.

Anyways was wondering how many do you guys run at the same time. And does it become way to much work for you? I only spend about 8 hours a month with the dozen I had. But was just wondering what your exp is with more stealths/accounts.

I am also using Thunderbird to check orders daily along with msgs but won't be replying from that. I'd log into the vps system to reply all emails. But having close to 50 accounts under Thunderbird anyone have that many? Did it run smooth for you?

I tend to run 10 core accounts that do the vast bulk of selling, have 20 further accounts that sit there selling to a less degree in rotation with each other and ageing and then dozens and dozens of accounts that have sold 1 item to get the clock started, they have bought a few items and then just sit there doing nothing else.

I only have bank accounts attached to the first 30 accounts.

So long as I stay organised and keep track of what is going on on what account its not too much work.

Yikes seems not bad. Having so many stealths becomes a full time job after a while. I just enjoy walking up each morning with newer orders!

[JamesNorth101]

Ha, it is nice to make money while sleeping.

I spend around 4/5 hours a day most days on the eBay accounts and then another 4/5 hours a day doing the other things I do for a living.

[GhostWhoWalks]

Yeah I spend about 20 minutes every 3 days re-listing my auctions. That I really hate doing for about 12 accounts. I wish I could find a free way of it doing it on it's own.

I spend about 1 minute per order. and about another 40 minutes each week doing something special to the accounts.

Not to mention answering questions, dealing with customers, calling ebay (once a month) etc.

I think I'll just have 3 sets of days to post daily. I guess this will be full time. Plus I got like 4 more products that I'm going to be reselling these coming months. What's great about stealths is that when you got a newer product and like 50 to 100 to test out to sell and see how it goes. It goes by FAST with so many accounts.

And yeah it's very nice to make money while sleeping. It's the BEST!

Thank god I don't package and ship the stuff.

I think hiring help for that stuff is great! Someone you can trust family, friend, husband, or wife. It's how I been doing it for all these years.

Well now I upgraded to my own server at a datacenter.

Since I have so many accounts. Got new Fresh IP's.

Side note from all of this. Thinking of account name for eb is really kinda hard. Feature name of the account I mean.

I run 15-20 seller accounts per week and rotate to a new batch of 15-20 the next week.

Rotation of several hundred sellers accounts keeps them under the radar, under the 200-20k and grows them into powerhouse accounts over time.

Lots of work but pays off for sure.

You have that many bank accounts? I must say I don't know how it works for US ebayers...

What happens after you hit 200-20k? Account is over eh?

That totally blows really with the limits and what not.

Own server at a datacenter...wow - those IPs are dedicated right? Are they international?

I do not want to share where I put my server at. (that is the private part).

Eb also reads these forums. I don't do anything bad. I just have 50 times more accounts then a normal seller on eb. I just want to make a lot of money! I don't sell ⊗⊗⊗⊗ or anything. I just want more $$$$$.

It's only $1 more per IP because you already renting the spot with internet. In the long run it's cheaper for me and pays off within 6 months and tons of savings if you look at it for years down the road.

Dedicated and in the country of the registered accounts. Just like the Stealth Book says.

You could send pm :P

Also that's really cheap, do you rdp in to it or? Make a bunch of vps and rdp in to them one by one

I was running 10 accounts and built limits up to 300+ on a most of them, but now I've decided to just use the one account and build that up as I sell in only one catagory and want all my products in the same shop so repeat buyers can see all my products instead of 10% of them, got my limits increased on it today to 2500-£9000 so things are going well and if i ever get banned again this time I will have my other accounts with decent limits there as backup.
