How many stealth accounts do you have?
 

Just wondering how many stealth accounts you guys have that are active and are managing them?

1 at the moment. Working my way up to manage 5 real soon. :D

I currently have 5 accounts and they are all up and running good.

whats the biggest key to keeping them going do you think?

more than I can count on my fingers and toes, keep under radar in terms of risky items and huge sums of money running through

under how much a month once you have how many feedback can you start to do more business?

I would say over 6 months and 50 feedback, you can gradually increase, slowly

4 accounts up and running, 6 in reserve. Probably 300 accounts over the last 10 years.

Stealth...define stealth?

Actually I have a primary account with the same last name, same address, same Paypal acct (different email address) as a previously suspended acct. Pretty much my real info except for the name. Running 30 months now with (knock on wood) no problems.

Have three other accounts with a fourth created, but nothing listed on it yet.

For those of you that run several stealth accounts, do you sell different products on each one? The only reason I've been running only one at a time, is because I really only sell 1-2 different types of things.... all non risky, no name brand items. Just curious.

I'm pretty much selling the same items on all, but rotate regularily. I have even sold items to myself from one account to another to hopefully make it look like they are all separate with just similar interests.

so you guys can login to as many ebay accounts as you want on the same ip address with no problem?

NO!

You have to use a separate ip address with each account to avoid linking. They may not have a problem now, but when one goes down, they will all go down. Using the same ip address will let ebay know it's the same person.

Keeping your head down. Keeping quiet about your business. Everyone has the potential to be a competitor. Tell them nothing, take them nowhere.:peace:

5 accounts Im using.. ~20 laying dormant, letting them age...

1 real, one stealth and 1 backup

10 real & 100 stealth

92 stealth. About 50 of them with 100+ feedback, the others never used.

Do yu have different addresses and bank accounts for all those accounts? How do you manage all the different information for each account and where do you come up with addresses, phone number etc for so many accounts.

3 real accounts.
