Multiple Paypal's to 1 eBay Risky but Possible

[TechTro]

I know I am gonna get a lot of flack for this. everyone is gonna say stop being lazy and make more and more accounts. I know I do that. But I was to experience and do it right not like I did a while back.

I really think that you can have list items and have the payments sent to more than 1 Paypal. I had a friend who did this for 3 months and three different paypal's and nothing happened. The way I want to do this is to list different items, lets say 3 items. Add a different paypal email address to all of them. So that payments go to all separate paypals for separate listings. I would have one user account for each paypal for clean cookies and different IP. I would not link any of the paypals to that one ebay and just pay with one time payments. The key here is not to login to more than one paypal account with the same IP.

What is the point of this?? Well the stupid 200/$20000 limit on paypal really screws everyone and when you have an unlimited account you can not use it to its full potential,so multiple paypals might make it way more profitable.

I will obviously try with a 100 limit account not an unlimited first, I am not stupid. But anyway let me know what you guys think.

If you want your paypal not to get limited for not providing SSN you shouldn't sell more than $400 a week. 400*50=20000

With 3 Paypal's you have 1200 a week and still in the clear. Assuming that it does work.

You would really have to be very careful doing this.

One mistake and down they all go.

Yep you are absolutely right. I will try this soon and I will let the forum know how it went.

I've proposed the idea to a few different members who wanted to sell heavy on one ebay account without meeting the SSN requirements from paypal.

I think it's a fine idea, but I would use different names on the paypal, for example, I would say the ebay account is for our business, 3 paypal accounts for the 3 partners who have divided inventory.

Might work.

But anyone new wont be able to pull it off.

You are very smart when it comes to this game and someone new would never be able to pull it off like you would.

Please remember they can easily apply limits to the account way before you reach the SSN/EIN 200/20k threshold. I would plan on having active backup accounts.
