that aside this has hapened before with my other account at 46k
So I am going to try out this stealth method ...
I just have a few questions
1,If i set up 4 accounts can they all link to one central paypal account ?
2, Will i need to log into each account daily to reply to messages or do you guys use software for this ?
3, how do i control stock as i will sell the same products over each account ?
can i use channel grabber or such like ?
any other advise would be good as i have 3k of stock and NO sales channels !!! |
Thanks for the question and welcome to the forum. Permit me to help as I was helped when I first started out on this forum. I wont go into the nitty gritty but I will just tell you straight up the best things to do.
You asked:
1,If i set up 4 accounts can they all link to one central paypal account ?
Answer: Dont link two accounts to same paypal, talkless of 4. Reason, 1 goes down, all will go down. So, its not worth it.
2, Will i need to log into each account daily to reply to messages or do you guys use software for this ?
Yes and No.. You can login to each account daily to rely to messages. You can just login to your email... glance through the headline without opening the email itself and if its worth reading, then just go ahead to login to the ebay.. opening the email everyday might be a risk of getting linked.
Alternatively, you can always login to each email through their stealth account. E.g you will only check email X through stealth account X.
You can use email aggregator tool such as thunderbird to collect all your email s and view easily (I never did this).
Fact: I am comfortably login into each of my ebay everyday.. after all, I wanna check if I have made some money. Sometimes, I can login to an account just once a day because all my items are dispatched within 5 working days so there is no rush to login multiple times daily, unless I want to list or I have the energy and feel like login in as I wish.
3, how do i control stock as i will sell the same products over each account ?
can i use channel grabber or such like ?
I will teach you my way.
I leave in a 4 bedroom so, one of the rooms is my warehouse. I have this milk cartons, loads of them I collected free from a carehouse. I label each carton with No 1 to like 50 or so. In each carton are my stock. Then I list all items that are available in each of the cartons in a excel sheet. I have a column for Carton no and quantity of that specific item in that carton. E.g Candle (21a(3),35c(4). This means there are 3 candles in carton number 21a and 4 in carton number 35c.
From the above scenario, I can have candle listed in as many of my ebay account as possible but I ensure that the total quantity listed in any ebay account does not exceed the total quantity I have in stock, in this case, I have 7 candles in stock. If I sell 2 candle, I will update the excel sheet accordingly and also go to each of the ebay accounts where candle is listed and update the quantities.
I can understand there are software to do the above but that is how I work around it. It works for me and it can work for you too.
Further to the above.
Things you didn't ask. You need to read stealth in order to learn how to cover your track so each of your account does not leave a finger print behind that could link them together cause if you mistakenly linked 2 accounts together, its just as good as having 1 account.
Best to use
Dedicated IP for each of your account. If you still dont know how to avoid linkage. Just use different computers with diff dedicated Ips. Simple as that.. oh not so simple. Just read the stealth first
Account closed need some advise
