dipmicro- being creative- there is a never ending supply.
IF- you are willing to get MORE e-mail accounts, more bank accounts- and possibly other credit cards.
I acknowledge that it is not as easy as some would make it seem.
However- different ID's do make life easier in the long run.
We have a 300+ STAR 100% perfect account that may be converted to selling at some point. So far it has only been used for buying.
For this other eBay ID- I have already REGISTERED the matching DOT COM domain. So, when rolled out- we will be very easy to find by using WWW
Another eBay ID used for buying is tied to a .NET which is up and running. Unfortunately- the nature of the FOOD items sold there- DOES not permit these to be easily sold on eBay. So, though advantageously tied- we do not market these products on eBay. BASIC chocolate- for delivery ONLY IN CANADA is easy. Shipping to the US, with PRIOR NOTICE legislation in place, makes this an onerous, and expensive, task. So we don't ship there. We have a US affiliate who ship from the US side, so we don';t have to deal with cross border issues.
JUST AS A NOTE- "chocolate"- as a FOOD product- for fountains, and baking IS NOT subject to GST (zero rated supply)- or any provincial taxes.
(eBay's tax calculators often have issues with these nuances.)
