Creating an account different from your IP info? Will you be banned?
Not sure where this belongs but this looks as good a place as any...
Has anyone ever tried to create an account in a different country before? I think there were at least a couple members who were looking into it last I heard. Since ebay has the new rules about requiring new sellers to have a paypal account to accept payment right off the bat, would this cause problems with having your account based somewhere else? Also, what about your IP information? Would you be very likely to be banned almost immediately with your IP being a totally different country from what you registered the ebay account with? Lastly, would you have to have a card (gift or whichever) based in that country to get away with it? I'm considering it as I think it would help my sales considerably as well as help get around some of ebay's more ludicrous rulings. I suppose I could always dive in, but I thought it best to ask here first before trying.
Any thoughts out there? |
