I need to sell my 1.5M, I have 1.3k auctions I need to move to a dif account. Help!

[noteventwice]

My mother has severe obstructive Sleep Apnea (she stops breathing while she's sleeping, horribly affecting her life, it carries terrible health implications, and could be fatal) and I need to raise money for her to get the treatment she needs as a sleep study and CPAP mask cost near $3000 all together, but I'm currently disabled and unable to hold a job. I have 1.5M that I earned legitimately (its a hobby), and I plan to sell it. I have about 1.3k leftover auctions that I need to keep. I earned the money on my main account, and I'm desperate enough that I don't care if it gets banned, however, I need to keep my 1.3k auctions so I can continue to make gold to sell. My question is if I sell the 1.5M on my main and it gets banned, and I mail the auctions to a new account beforehand, will they track and ban my new account similar to if I sent gold rather than items? If I can keep the items and continue raising the money instead of starting over, I could seriously help give my mother a healthy life. Also, I plan to use Paypal, and I haven't used my account in quite some time, would they be suspicious of me receiving $1000 or so out of the blue from an IP far away? My Paypal is verified. I've heard horror stories of Paypal locking funds for long periods of time. Any tips for my situation would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you for your time, you have my gratitude,

Thank you nerfmeplease, peterfried, Bobonei, Devestation, x4kep, and gsavage. You guys have greatly helped my mother and I.



EDIT: Clarity

[nerfmeplease]

selling gold always carries a risk of tying accounts. transferring that many items to a new account (especially valuable items im assuming) is never a good idea. If i were you, create a guild, open all the bank tabs you can and deposit them into the bank.

Use the gbank as a buffer between your accounts, ie: main account can hold everything, use other accounts to siphon off gold from the bank as you sell it (you wont be able to and definitely dont want to sell it in one large sum, scam city). make it a public guild, recruit members (or buy a guild with members in it) to make traffic instead of just 2 characters transacting through the bank.

Like i said, its always a risk, and with that sum, you need to take your time and be smart about it. Ive never seen someone sell a large sum like that and not get scammed, either. sell it in smaller, less noticeable quantities.

Only part of the game i miss... the risk rip in peace wow.

Thank you very much for your advice .

[peterfried]

Your very own Guild bank is the way to go. You could also deposit the items in guild bank from the main acc and slowly repost them in AH from the second account.
As nerfmeplease correctly stated, do NOT sell all your gold at once, it's almost certain that you will get scammed.

If I were you, I would also set up a Moneybookers (skrill) account.
It's a bit safer than Paypal, also much lower fees on withdrawal - and in your situation you will need all the extra cash you can make.

If you need any recommendations (based on MY experience) on buyers, to limit the possibility of getting scammed, I would be happy to help you with PMs.


Best of luck to you and your mother.

I'm on Darkspear-US, but my apologies, I have my mind set on my buyers. Thanks for the wishes!

Make sure you read similar threads posted here in general, if I remember correctly Razor wrote a sick guide on one thread and make sure you read it inside out, I am not sure but I think you should require your buyers to send you the money via Friends and Family(no withdraws).
Make sure the buyers are verified as well as you.

Very touching post, wishing you all the best luck to you and your mother!

I'll add you, but if I went the restore route I'd be worried about my buyer's welfare. Thanks!
