Listing same items on 2 different accounts
 

I searched and couldn't find the answer to this question so I am hoping that someone has the answer.

I have 2 different stealth accounts (nothing on either account matches) - one has a store on it and another has a selling limit of 50 items. I would like to list 50 items for auction on the one account that doesn't have the store since those listings will be free and was hoping that if the items don't sell move them over to the id that has the store. Is this risky in terms of getting the two accounts linked somehow?

Too too risky.

Are you still not understanding the danger of the meaning of LINK

:pout:

I don't see the problem?

If your account is completely separate, with different info and everything...why not? I'm going to be doing something similar where I have 3-4 stealth accounts selling [essentially] the same product - just a different color/type between each account.

Just use different pictures, write the description & title differently, different starting price or BIN price, and maybe even different shipping rates.

Am I wrong? I thought that one of the many advantages to Stealth was that you can spread out some items between accounts, or post on another account if something doesn't work out or goes wrong on another... If I'm missing something here, please explain :P

Re-read what the OP said......

'move the items over to the other account'.


Not one single mention of taking ANY stealth precautions.

That is the danger.

OP needs to better define what they will do.

:juggle:

Oh ok, I see. Yeah, that would be very risky to just copy or "move the items over." But if the OP took my advice about changing everything up, there shouldn't be problems, right? Cause I'm planning to do the same : )

If its a common item...i.e. A hard drive for example then its not an issue as long as you change up the listing. If something more original I would not recommend it. Its not ebay I would worry about, but the snob police that report everything they see.

Thank you - I didn't mention anything about changing anything in the listing...my mistake.

Yes I would make changes to the listing like changing by template, wording in the description and price.

I should have mentioned that in the beginning...sorry currently dealing with pregnancy brain.

I have been doing this for a while. Just make sure to follow the stealth guide and be sure to take different pictures too. I've not had any issues yet.

If you will change the item pictures, wording in description, selling price, shipping fee, then you do not have a problem
