Create or Purchase New Amazon Account??

[djkonas]

I've been selling on Amazon for nearly 5 years now. In this time I've successfully run over 20 stealth accounts and am very familiar with the process. I was running my last 3 accounts but have all been suspended in the last 2 months. Reason for the suspensions was selling generics on OEM listings. I have removed these listings and will be creating my own generic ones once I open a new account. My situation is that I have about 150 products (electronics, sporting goods categories) totaling nearly 10,000 pieces. About 10 listings have been created by me from multiple previous ghost accounts. When I attempt to create a new account it is immediately being closed upon adding bank account details. I can only surmise that it is due to the listings being linked to previous accounts. I understand that a workaround is a 1 to 5 or 1 to 10 ratio of old to new listings. What I would like to do is purchase an Amazon account which has already successfully completed the review process. I can then ship all my inventory to FBA and resume sales immediately. If found, should I still maintain the one to five or 1 to 10 ratio? Are any such established ghost accounts for sale? Should I just start over with new accounts and slowly build? Any advice is appreciated!!

As of now, there is only 1 Amazon US seller, and he doesn't offer accounts like you mention. Learn to make your own.

Yes, is what I was afraid of...creating new accounts now
