Hello Snakeeyes,

No need to get worried over something that never happens bud. I have not once, in my 3+ years of flipping products had a limit on the number of Amazon products I can order. That is simply because I do not typically order over 3 products at one time. Why would I? Your NOT going to get a seller who orders from you in bulk. It just doesn't happen. The most I receive from one particular buyer at a time is around 3 and that typical;lly only happens during the holidays.

I may sell an XYZ item 8 times in a week, but they are ordered from different buyers at different times. The amazon restriction is only setup for those who want to purchase 10+ of the same item, all at once. This is not the game we play here.

This is simply not true. There are limitations on Amazon items even at 1-3 purchases.

Snake,

From my knowledge, I've almost been doing Amazon to eBay for 2 years now. The only way around this is to create more Amazon Accounts. If you don't want to do this, then remove the limited quantity items on eBay. That's my best advice. If you want to streamline, remove limited quantity items. They are problematic.

grafx77, what do you think aboult what dune said in response to your reply? Seems accurate to me. I don't see what difference it makes whether you buy a limited quantity item in bulk all in one order, or one at a time. The limitation is still going to apply.

If a Playstation 4 is limited to 3 orders per account, it doesn't matter whether you buy all 3 of them at one time, or one after the other. Once you've purchased 3 on that same account, the limitation is going to come into affect. So like I asked earlier, what's the solution to this?

Snakeeyes,

I saw you PM. Unfortunately, I do not have 15 posts yet.

Here's the dirty:

Amazon will not ban your account for purchasing items to other people. They will suspend your Amazon Prime. That being said, there is no answer on an algorithm on how they suspend Prime. I've gone through roughly 15 accounts with Prime. Lots of them, I didn't pay but used the 30 day free trial. However, in the mean time, I order from 100-3000 orders before the prime being suspended. Instead of Prime, you may want to look into an Amazon Business account

Limited Quantities on Amazon is a totally different ball game. You have to have multiple accounts. The only way around this would to have some type of contact in Amazon Customer Support that could reset that quota. I don't believe there is such a thing. Again, I would just end the item if instead of dealing with a limited quantity item. They are just major PITAs.

Hope this helps,

Yes, that helps alot. Thanks!

I've been hearing conflictings, one tells me that Amazon will ban your account, the other says they wont.

Someone else told me that you have use vcc's, gift cards, and a whole new name, address, etc everytime you make a new account bevause Amazon will ban your credit card. Did you have to do that when you made your Amazon accounts?

Thanks!

Snakeyes,

They don't ban your credit card, but they do connect their information to other accounts. I've opened up multiple Prime accounts with the same credit card but eventually what stopped me was the limited quantity quotas. They were all tied together by the credit card/billing information?

Anyways, I now use VCCs and gift cards strictly. For fun, I use a random name from the VPN location I connect to.

However, for billing address, you need to get inventive. Maybe contact the VCC company .

Snake,

Ok so there is a big difference between an item like PS4 that only allows limited quantities to be sold (which is typically displayed on the listing) and ordering a PS4 controller that clearly does not display a limit. You can and will be able to order multiple quantities of the item if the listing does not state that there are limits. That should be pretty straightforward.

As for ordering multiple items, there is most certainly a difference between ordering 1-3 items at a time, compared to order 8+ etc. Most sellers are not going to sell you a bulk order of XYZ. This is simply screaming that you are dropshipping from their account. However, some Amazon sellers could care less and want to get rid of as much stock as quickly as possible. It's on a case by case basis.

I hardly ever have anyone on eBay trying to purchase more than 3 items of a particular product (probably because I only list 3 of each item). If your listing a product with a quantity of 50 in stock, then your opening yourself up to those types of orders, which is great if your wholesaling, NOT dropshipping.
BTW, you shouldn't even be posting more than a quantity of 3 for each item as it takes up too much of your selling limit. You should only be selling in increments of 3.

Thanks, I'm unlimited on eBay so I don't currently have any selling limits.

Right now, I list all my items with a quantity of 1. But what do you think about what dune157 said? Is Amazon going to ban accounts for excessive ordering to multiple addresses?
