How to open multiple Ebay accounts and make them LAST?

[HurricaneHuntr]

i would slit my wrists having to wait 5-10 mins . If you are in this to make money. Invest in a wireless access card, or tether to your phone... and switch ips by turning airplane mode on/off

Otherwise you're just putting yourself through hell... Hell it's hard enough just making an account that will stick now...

[xdirc]

I keep my ip address and important details right on the desktop in a .txt file of each account. I'm a VMWare user and it comes in handy.

Now I won't say that I'm as wise as other members here but I have operated a long time without noting IP and trying to keep same IP but I do use new user accounts on windows for each account. Works ok so far.

My tip for opening multiple eBay/PayPal accounts is to store all account details. I have many eBay accounts and store account information for each one within an excel spreadsheet. Very effective method.

I do use different IP addresses and user accounts for each different eBay account. the key to operating multiple accounts is to seperate them and keep them seperated.

Same, i don't log my ips... it changes every time with the phone, what are they going to do ? Suspend every user who logs on ebay with their mobile devices?

I made myself a program that auto updates my excel spreadsheet with a double click of the mouse.

Check out my demo vid. It is very handy for my 25+ user setup and saves lots of time

I have actually updated my program so now, with a double click of the mouse, it resets my ip, checks and logs it and then opens my firefox with 3 tabs (gmail, pp, eb) with all passwords filled in, ready to go - pukka pies

I am going to give a couple of accounts a try I think. If it fails, so be it and I will be done with Ebay forever until someone figures out how to get around the selling limit. Here are a couple of more questions.

Do you use a completely ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name?
Completely ⊗⊗⊗⊗ address?
All ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info when creating a new account?

I am asking alot of questions because I am going to log my experience creating these new accounts and see if I can somehow figure out to how get around the selling limit.

If you own the book like you said it would answer all these questions.....

Every answer is in the guide...

I do just like you and to change IP im going in to network connection and change my network address and than I need to wait a couple of minutes and I'm getting a NEW ip.

Hey, MR GTB could you explain me more about method you are using with android phone ?

[GTB]

^^ no worries^^

first,for example...download gmail app from the android market,sync the eb/pp email address to your phone,

then when you get a new ip,dial it in your fone as if you are adding someones number,

e.g name:ip4gtb@gmail number:141.782.23.90
name:ip4stealth1 number:324:575:767

when it asks where you want to save it,e.g sim,phone etc,save it in the email account of which is used for that eb/pp you will be loggin into,

then whenever you change ip address,type in the new one,and if it has been used before it will show you which profile it was used for,

e.g dial 141.782.23.90 it will show the name it belongs to ip4gtb@gmail,

just a quick simplified way,but,if you lose your fone your fooked

hope this helps

^^^^^^^^^^^^

I wanted to buy new phone long time ago, I was planning to buy some **** but know I guess I will buy android

Could you suggest me what phone should I buy ?

[GTB]

google compare android mobile phones

find a site and have a look

it depends on how much money you want to spend,some cost a fortune and some are cheap and cheerfull

but if you want quality you will have to pay for it,unless you can pick up a bargain somewhere

good luck

p.s htc desire,quality android phone

The guide I am using from 2007 does say that name and address don't matter. But as I said in the original post the guide I am using is almost worthless right now. Hell it says Simon Gift Accounts are the #1 VCC. 90% of it is outdated to not matter anymore. So again, going to my question do you use ⊗⊗⊗⊗ everything? If it is true that they are asking questions to verify it wouldn't be to a benefit to use completely ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info. The guide also has NO mention of any type of selling limits.

making acc is easily, not linking quite easy, it becomes a habit..........
making it last, well lower volumes and risks, build feedback, ship promptly, avoid dropshipping, legit items........

logging ips, well whilst its recommended, its going to get repeated, but if its a broad range then that could be in several months I mean that is different to same ip on seperate accs on same day - it cannot make any difference surely, its too haphazard a way of linking for them. think about it, if someone else gets your ip that you used 2 months ago, it does not link him to you even if he or you are suspended, it just doesnt or it would be happening all over the world right now........cookies and flash objects link, as that pts you at scene of crime for sure, or at least maybe your unfortunate roomate too...

I use net zero dial-up and it only uses 10-20 IP addresses. Went through 5 different states recently and used the local numbers again to connect and I was surprised that in every state the same 10-20 IP addresses appeared. So im pretty sure they cant suspend everyone on netzero that basically shares this set of IP.

Im going to get the dongle next week. However when power went out last night for several hours, I was only one with internet access.....lol

I'm back!!! Bought a subscription...

Anyways is it not just a huge pain having 5 accounts that can only sell 10 items a piece? I don't honestly see how you can get the selling limits upped on a stealth account....

It only seems like a pain. Once you get the hang of it, it's very easy.

Your limits won't raise past 10 items until your accounts are at least 90 days old (from the date of your first sold item). You can't have any bad marks or feedback either. Also, I have accounts that are well past 100 days old and still have the 10 item limit.... Welcome to eBay Stealth.

Also, if your limits do not change after 90 days, don't push real hard to get them increased. That is when they look at you very carefully. I've noticed many people asking how to get the limits increased. Vigilantex69, read the forums and you will know there is no formula that will give you a higher limit. If there was, none of us would have limits.

SweetPea gives solid advice. As for accounts with higher limits, there are ways but those are learned with trial and error.
