Few questions after reading Amazon ebook

[bigchuck]

Hi guys, it was suggested I take my more specific questions here. I couldn't find an answer in the ebook for these. So here goes:

1. Should we avoid reusing our SKU nomenclature on the new stealth account?
2. Can we use FBA as we did before?
3. Can we print shipping labels with our old address (and new name) on them? This would make working with our USPS pickups much easier if so.
4. Can we remote desktop from a [very likely] red flagged IP into the office computer (which has a new IP, MAC, etc)? As a network guy I can't think of any risk, but I want to double check.

Thank you for any help

YES

Yes. Take precautions with inventory

NO

I would avoid doing that. You have a weak link so to speak with the chances of a flagged IP.

Thank you for any help

Starting again with amazon means avoiding at ALL costs creating anything in the new account that has similarities to old suspended info.

You must appear so new, even amazon can not trace you. If you take the extra steps now, you should be able to make stealth work.

Another point is to not sell the same inventory.

Let me just add, I do tin hat stealth. Some may think it over the top.
I prefer to be careful.

Thank you for the input!

What do you mean about FBA and being careful? Avoid sending anything that we've clearly sent in before? We're going to use this opportunity to do an overhaul of our inventory anyways.

As for remote desktop, we will try to avoid it for now...I feel like it should work, as the flagged IP is not passed through the target remote PC. But I'm still going to give this one some research. I do some Amazon consulting as well, and have been avoiding logging in from home for this reason.

@OP, what do you mean using FBA "as we did before"?
