Ebay stealth and Royal Mail Business Accounts?
 

Hi guys

So currently i am running a stealth account as i had lost my real account 3 months ago.

When i had my real ebay account i integrated this real account to my Royal Mail business account.
Now real ebay account is dead.

Because i get really decent rates on the RM postal rates (better than normal post office rates)
Would it be wise to carry on using this RM business account alongside my new stealth account.?

I am planning to open another 6 or 7 ebay stealth and use my existing RM business account to print RM 1st and 2nd class shipping labels.

Its the discount that makes it worthwhile.

Would you advise me doing this or would this hurt my stealth accounts?

I only have one RM business account with my real company details.

Any info from you guys would help me and others with our stealth journey.

Thank you all.

I use RM business account for all my posting needs including stealth for the same reason you mentioned. It’s a considerably cost saving

The only problem is when you electronically link accounts like though an API and I don’t do this for stealth for obvious reasons Yes it’s a pain and not as automated as it could be but it saves any potentially link information. It’s unlikely eBay would gain that kinda of information from such a link but then I’m not one to chance it either

Many people on this forum use multiple stealth accounts on Click and drop but I'm against it for many reasons.
See my comment on another thread here.

You can download, combine and then upload your CSV files from eBay to Click and drop.
You TRS status will thank you later and you'd dodge many other problems.

Hi mate,

Thanks for your input. So how do you do your RM click and go labels for multiple stealth accounts?
It must be a painful long process if dealing with multiple account orders.

Any tips to make the printing shipping labels efficient on multiple accounts?

Cheers pal

Hello,

Thank you for your advice, much appreciated.

So just to clarify its possible for one to download all ebay sales in CSV files from multiple stealth accounts and then upload all info onto RM C&D?

You mentioned we'd dodge many other problems, would you be kind to give some examples please?

I am still new and trying to learn as much as possible. Thank you for your help.

Yes, downloading your CSV files and uploading to C&D is exactly what I recommend and personally do.

Follow the link to the other thread where I've said a little bit more of the problems that arise from connecting your account to C&D.

It’s actually now been covered by Pandora, I follow the same exact process. Download to CSV from accounts and upload. As I said before it’s not the greatest but it’s still quicker than individual and the costs saving from the business accounts makes up for it
