Selling on two linked accounts.

[afarmington]

I understand ebay will not allow you to sell on two accounts if your account in trouble or you're trying to circumvent around being limited on item specific limits. But on accounts that are not in trouble (semi stealth) and I'm selling things around the house, can I list on account B, if account A is maxed out with my ten items? Or is that a red flag for them? Items would be between $20 and $40, if that has any bearing.

'Maxed out with ten items' is the downer.....

Not recommended. ebay are known to perceive a seller is trying to circumvent selling limits when this is done.

There's more to this as well.

Are the accounts all the same apart from the email address? If not, using them would link them. ( Just checking the precise status of the accounts.)
Below is what happened to a seasoned stealther...

Yes, everything but the email is the same. I *almost* listed on the linked account today, since I quickly ran up my ten limit on old account and new stealth account. Glad I checked here first

I will have another stealth (or two) within a few days. Will just hold off and sell on those after a week or so...

If you're selling that hard, probably good to get 5-6 accounts and rotate daily

You're correct. My season for selling 'extreme couponing' surplus at the flea market is finished till next spring. And I'm hoping this will actually be my last season with that, it's getting harder to do what I do since that show came out. So I need to find a new bread and butter that will make as much.

My limits were not raised on my oldest account after the 90 days, even though I maxed out the selling limit, and have a good number of FB. If all my accounts are 10/500, I'll need more than what I have now to meet our monthly budget.
