Re: Why need multiple amazon accounts?
The $750 review used to be done like clockwork, but now it varies.
Why several accounts? To spread your risk. The truth is, ANYONE can lose an account at any time, even if your merchandise is 100% legitimate and you try your best to operate professionally. Competitors will try to take you down. A glitch in the postal system could cause everything you sent out on a given day to be delayed. Even though your tracking will show the item was shipped, all Amazon will care about is on time delivery. No account is immune to this, unless maybe, you are a large volume, well-known seller.
There is nothing worse than the feeling of having an account banned when you are selling, for example, $10k per month and making a $3,000 profit which you count on to pay your bills and suddenly losing it. Then, just to screw you up even more, they hold your money for 90 days. It is difficult to recover from that. Using multiple accounts means they can only shut down a small percentage of your business. If you have 10 accounts instead of one, and one account goes down, you have only lost 10% of your business, not 100% of your business.
