I have listed a few items on Ebay with a mark up for stuff that i have found for sale cheap on Amazon with the intention that if I get a sale i will order it from Amazon and get it shipped direct to the Ebay buyer. I have done this a few years ago and not had any problems, as if anyone wants to return the item it just goes back to Amazon and I get my money back then refund them on Ebay.
What I wanted to know was whether i could purchase the items from Amazon using my own affiliate links to make a bit extra cash on top of my markup? I know it can't buy use the same account that is registered with my Amazon affiliate account but wondered if I would be able to create a new account with new email address and pay with a pre-paid VISA card so it's not tied to me? The postal addresses are going to be those of the Ebay buyers so no link back to my own address. To stop them tracking my IP I can use privacy browsing while connected to a WiFi hot spot from my phone and use my mobile phone data. It's easy enough to get a unique IP doing this by just putting it the phone into airplane mode for a few minutes then reconnecting as the IP's change regularly on mobile broadband.
I wondered if anyone has tried it buying through their own Amazon links and had any success?
