buying a ready to sell account

[turboman]

for quickness less hassle... less headache im thinking of going the ready to sell ebay and paypal account route from one of the account sellers...

alls good and im thinking about a few things before i make the purchase

i asked the account seller regarding the cookie situation... stealth advice is to use a new user account on your own computer for the cookie side of things

if buying an account say with 5-10 feedback already up and running and then you buy that and start to use it from a new ip with no or fresh cookies does this not throw up a flag ? as the account will have been created using different ip and cookie background

also finding it hard to get a new clean bank account to attatch to paypal so a ready to sell account in that respect will be good for me but i was then thinking of how to get the earned funds from the paypal account
i have plenty of friends / family with paypal accounts that i could send the the funds to
will sending funds on a regular basis to the same friends or family members account raise a flag ?:
also if i lost the account to suspension would they then suspect the reciever account and possibly link the 2... i dont want to mess up a friends or family members account through no fault of there own

money is becoming a bit of an issue now as ebay is or was my only income thanks to the recession but laying out say £90 for an account only to have it suspended along with my money in the paypal account is make or break time for me

Transferring money to friends and family is an excellent method of getting all the accounts involved limited - it works as regular as clockwork

If you buy an account when you establish your new user account log in and browse - establish some cookies on your machine

Bid on a couple of high value items that you have no chance of winning. I bid £10 on a tractor that went for £14,000 once

There is no viable alternative IMO to attaching a bank account to the Paypal account. There are many accounts out there you will qualify for.

If things are as desperate as you say do not let your desperation lead you into foolish mistakes

There is no longer any quick and easy fix I'm afraid

[turboman]

ok cheers, i was worried about the linking a friend or familes account and i dont want that added hassle

hmm... i know stealth helps but it just seems like there are so many hurdles to get over, i seem to get over one and can see the finish line and another hurdle appears out of thin air

can i buy a ready to sell account and start selling and add a fresh bank details when i get them ?

as when i see ready to sell accounts i expect that to mean ready to sell right ?
obviously after browsing a bit to knock up some cookies and bidding on a few items

wouldnt be so bad but im not looking to sell mobiles and 50" tvs... i sell i only sell odds and sods to make ends meet with my own items and things i buy in bootsales to resell

Send a PM to the UK account sellers - they are all very knowledgeable and are always ready to help

Bad way to think . Going 'quickly might be disaster in the long term.

also finding it hard to get a new clean bank account to attatch to paypal so a ready to sell account in that respect will be good for me but i was then thinking of how to get the earned funds from the paypal account

Prepare to bury ALL the accounts. Not recommended.

will sending funds on a regular basis to the same friends or family members account raise a flag ?:

Yes, yes and YES

also if i lost the account to suspension would they then suspect the reciever account and possibly link the 2... i dont want to mess up a friends or family members account through no fault of there own

Learn and understand the danger of the word LINK

money is becoming a bit of an issue now as ebay is or was my only income thanks to the recession but laying out say £90 for an account only to have it suspended along with my money in the paypal account is make or break time for me

Here's my .50p..... look at your plan again. Quickness is no bail out to be stealth.

Hey turboman,

As the other have said, you need to think this through slowly.

I too am solely dependant on ebay as my only source of income and only this week I have seen the first signs of money through my new stealth accounts - this is after several months of being banned and only 3 weeks of being stealth.

I can understand the frustration, but now several weeks in, I have sorted two fully no limit paypal and ebay accounts and have others that I am working on.

Bank accounts - you want a basic account available from many UK banks, several can be sorted online and then just go inbranch to show ID - no credit checks.

My income is still no where near what it once was and Im sure you dont need told how stressful that is when you have a family and home to support, but I know I am getting there.

Start fresh, think slow, check everything, do your research on here and have a plan.

Well put...

[turboman]

thanks guys yes it is stressfull very much so

i was beginning to think some of the stealth ebayers who are up and running had forgotten whats its like to be blocked, banned, hopeless and penniless

i know you have heard my kind of story over and over and over but im sure some folks just dont appriciate... if i dont earn money i could lose my home

its all good playing a waiting game i know how ebay are ive been using it 10+ years

but i dont have too much time on my hands sitting here with no income and each and every day another bill bounces unpaid

[SimpleX]

I hear ya buddy...

Best of luck with your stealth's!

Turboman,

Even if no-one else is voicing it on here, im sure there are many struggling and worried about losing their homes as a result of being banned by ebay.

My mortgage company chose last month to put my interest rates up and I have to now find another £300 every month on top of the rest of the mortgage bill which we are struggling with at the moment.

Now im back online, im also struggling with the 21 day hold on my money and paypal not paying out for postage costs when I buy postage through them - which I have to do - We have 3 months of that to look forward too as new sellers. Ive also managed to pick up some funny people who think its clever to bid at the last minute, win the items and then disappear - thank you once again ebay for making this so easy for people to do and walk away from.

We do hear you fella, you just have to take a step back and start fresh. Every day im so annoyed with myself that ebay and paypal are solely the best options for selling my chosen items - so then everyday I have to bite my lip and just get on with it because I need it to work out.

Im the worst person in the world to be telling someone not to panic - but dont panic

What's a 'proper job'?

I'm a domestic management operative, A poultry produce packer and grader, A porcine maintenance and sustanence specialist, oh and a farmers bed warmer. Not to mention my online trading operation

Which one is a proper job?

Housewife? Egg Packer? Pig feeder? Ebay trader?

Oh heck - do I care?

No like other sales channels, other sites, your own website and so on.

Eby is only a sales channel and should be treat as such, the more channels you have the less you have to worry if one gets shut down.

seling on the net is a propper job if your doing it right, infact i have worked much harder in this job than any other beucae the rewards are much greater and i don't mean just money.
