Most of the accounts get banned a few weeks later after logging in. I would say 80% of my accounts get banned after a few weeks later and only 20% works so far. Niantic ban is not immediate, it usually takes a few days/weeks before they catch up on you (sometimes even a month later). And this is even with ABSOLUTE ZERO botting after purchase. What did you really expect though? The sellers are chunking out accounts on 24/7 basis. They just want to make a quick buck and that's it. I'm not blaming the sellers here though. I understand the risk and I accept it and that is why I buy in bulk all the time.
So if you're going to buy accounts, always remember, the chance of getting banned is very high at this point and probably forever.
Don't be crying or filing dispute claims, you have been warned.
What I've learned from burning through my wallet on these accounts:
1. Niantic ban is not immediate (it takes a few days/weeks, sometimes up to a month)
2. 24/48 hours replacement is absolute rubbish
3. Only 20% accounts are safe
