how many ebay accounts to one paypal?
 

what is the recomended number of ebay accounts a person should have to one paypal?

i have 2 ebay accounts which i use to sell on and recieve payments into one paypal, is this going to be a problem?

Thats allowed but if one goes down, more likely other will too.

Much better to have one.ebay to.one paypal :-)

And keep them totally different stores, don't even list in the same categories let alone the same items across both accounts.

Ebay becomes extremely sensitive and looks extra close at your accounts when you have two ebays with one paypal so make sure you run a tight operation

If you list same items even with different pics, titles, descriptions, the moment ebay notices, you get a 180 day duplicate listing violation, they end all your listings and that is only if they don't indefinitely suspend the account.

Equally easy to have one paypal per ebay. Also better for the 1099k request, etc..

UK has the £1900 anti-money laundering limits to face.

No 1099K for them.

Similar?
And that would make my life very challenging at 1900 Yikes!

Not really.

It is for anti-money laundering laws.

Taxes differ.

It certainly does make stealth a challenge. Moreso these days.

I feel bad for the UK sellers. I keep reading at the challenges they have even with simple things such as banks and now all these limitations. Whats the deal? What is the real issue? Just too much government?

Right now?

Just too much of everything. LOL.

Not being an alarmist but it may be a fore-runner of different ways to come.

Banks in the UK are not that big of a deal though. Even based in Australia, I have access to UK banks wheere & when needed.

I sat down and studied carefully what banks were useable for me.

I have written about this in other posts. While best to use 1:1 eb to pp, keep in mind that your 2:1 eb to pp is linked. So...you could be hit with reduced limits, SPLIT limits, or even limitations based on security issue. Don't rely ONLY on this combination.

It scares me already. What if I sell all what I am allowed to sell on account 1 then move to account 2 with same items?

Thanks.
