8 accounts to 1 pay-pal account
 

hi this may of been answered in other posts but cannot seen to find one relating to this,
can i have 8 eb ay accounts to one pay pal?????????
i only sell legit items stocking-tights-underwear etc
hope i can as got selling allowance of 100 items a month and as this is my job after a operation for the next six months, i need to make some wages, any advice appreciated thanks in advance amanda x:pry:

It will work but if/when they clock on, you will get done for trying to 'get around' their selling limits - I read it on here somewhere

With the quantity you are talking about think it is risky

Yeah I agree with Alps.

Very bad idea..they will shut you down for trying to get around their selling limits.

In my opinion even 3 ebay accounts to one paypal account is pushing it.

isnt it 6 to 1, the max

If you do not run alot through each ebay you could try it, I would not go to 8 though myself, maybe 3 or 4....

no max is 8 I believe.

I wouldnt bother trying to run that amount through one account those.

Spread your risk by using some stealth accounts would be my advice, so if paypal does shut you down you dont lose your income completely.

Run the stealth accounts as well as your real main ones.

@amanda,

although techincally you can have 8 emails to one paypal account, it's a big deal to run 8 ebay accounts. It's not quite kosher with ebay. So if they pick on one account & pull it, the rest will fall like dominoes. (This is regardless of the accounts being legit or not).

You then have the complication of not being able to list the same items identically.(You need different photos etc).
Right at this moment, ebay uk is being anal about having multiple accounts. Since you are thinking long term, then I would not recommend doing this.

yes, bit of confusion is going to ensue on UK forum, no doubt when all this conflicting advice from uk eb/pp hits the fan.
Basically signing up for 2nd eb, requires its own 2nd paypal, which does not need to be bank verified but payment for the 2nd eb auctions need to be directed to go to original 1st verified paypal - pointless, I know.....

sorry GB, did you say you are not able to list same items on both??

Mis-worded what I said. Now amended.:doh:
