Buying Stores

so lets say i "buy" your account because you have a high sell / list limit... The first thing I would have to do is switch over the bank information for payment. As I recall they ask for name on account? this alone would send up a red flag, forget the changing the e-mail address and all the other things that would have to be changed on the account.

So when you first open an eBay account you can list 10 items... and once you pass i believe its $300 in sales, it opens up. The next hurdle is the Seller rating, you want to get to achieve "Top Rated Seller" and that requires selling 100 items in a 6 month period with a total value exceeding $1000. At this point you can request a limit increase.

The other way around this is to open with a business account... use the store option and list to your MAX amount, and then call and request a limit increase, and do this repeatedly.

I just dont think "buying" a store is going to achieve the desired outcome, and from the way i am looking at it, it pretty much would ensure the account ends up closed. Lets be honest someone buying a store with say a $40,000 limit is nothing but asking for trouble on eBays part, so the moment account details start getting changed such as bank accounts and e-mails, I am pretty sure they will lock it down and there will be some verification that has to happen.
