How much is too much $ into a new PP stealth?
 

Ok so...... things are up and running. 4 new stealth Ebay and PP accounts. All have been setup as Biz accounts. All verified with a credit card and all linked to verified bank accounts. I made a couple small purchases with each.

The first PP account is about to hit $500 in received payments over a 6 day period (all $15-$18 payments). Which is where i plan on stopping for that PP account for a while and moving to the next PP account.

Im wondering, With the PP account being bank & CC verified is $500 a good place to stop on that account for a month? or is even $1000 safe? Ive read posts here and there mentioning 500 but no real consensus that i can find.

Once I do $500 on each account I think I might go back and see if I can push the first one to $1000 without being limited......... or maybe i shouldn't risk it and just make a 5th & 6th account lol

The amount coming in is not so much of a problem as the amount coming out. A $20 deposit doesn't raise eyebrows, $500 withdrawals do. I don't like to see more than $300 a month withdrawal, but I'm on multiple accounts. I would be taking much greater risks on 2 or 3. Bottom line is that no one knows for sure, so you have to live and learn.

Considering paypal has limited accounts for amounts from $8 to S2500, all you can do is be aware that any amount might be sad news.:pop2:

Try a search on the forum about withdrawals. We've had lots of discussions about 'safe' amounts. Below are two threads that should help. There are more.....:spy:

The biggest factor in this will depend on the quality, as in the trustworthiness of your transactions and account activity.

How are people finding 21 day holds these days, what's the latest on new accounts and the holds?

I think it depends on what you're selling. I always say $500 in the second month and no more, however I have gone up to $800 in the second month without problems.

With my two new paypal account they have let the first two transactions go through with no holds. all transactions after that have had the 21 day hold. the ebay accounts though only have 5 and 7 feed backs each so far. all from buying.

So no matter what looks like ill be waiting 21 days at most to get my money out ;O( sad

I always try to keep it below $500 just to be on the safe side
