IP Address
 

I was wondering if you have to change your IP address if you are going to manage two or more stealth accounts and any reason to this. Beacuse before eBay shut me down due to PayPal I used to have 3 eBay accounts under the same IP address and was selling on all three

Yes you need a new and different IP address for each ebay/paypal account or you will get linked.

Yup, since you've been suspended just get used to changing IPs for each account. Create new user accounts for each ebay/PP account on your computer too. Clear cookies.

Think of yourself as having a target pasted to your chest in the eyes of ebay/PP now.

I guess it going to be tough, every time i log-in to a user account before i go on ebay i will have to change IP address.I have noticed i changed my IP address on one laptop i go to the second and that also changed to the same IP address.

All laptops connected to the same WiFi point will have the same public IP address.

And I say it's a struggle when people have numerous stealth accounts. Somehow it inspires me to work even harder

Yeah it's definitely tough and tedious BUT you only really have to do it to create the account; after that you can use a third party management software. As long as you use a new IP for each token. I haven't gotten as far as using third party software yet.

As for me I have decided to keep using eBay's shipping so that they see my accounts giving them more money than they deserve so they are less likely to shut it down.

How is using paypal to pay USPS for shipping through ebay benefit ebay to the point that a robot would consider not closing your account? :peace:
