Default Hiding my address when selling

Hi all
I'm looking to start selling in small ish quanties new product on eBay in uk. I have an account at moment which I sell and buy without dramas. Due to what I'm what now wanting to sell extra I want to keep my address hidden, don't want to advertise what I've got at home!

-So can I get another eBay account on top of my normal one and hide the address?

-does my PayPal give away my address when I sell? Can I just use a prepaid card for paypal

Any tips very welcome
Thanks

If someone wants to return something, you have to provide an address.

In an ebay/paypal packing slip there is an address.

Eventually an address will get exposed.

I don't see how a 2nd ebay account helps your scenario.

1. Stealth allows for operation of multiple eb/pp accounts safely.

2. Why would you not consider a different address than home? Po box or something else? I never give out home address for sales.

What are you going to be selling, inflatable dolls?

The idea of Stealth is that we don't use a real address

PO boxes or even a reshipper or some other drop might work in your case.

Haha, nothin as exciting as inflatable dolls... But don't want my address to show up on either my PayPal account or eBay. Wasn't sure how it would work with returns etc? I was under impression you coundlt use a PO box for either in the uk

You can create a stealth account and use a po box for returns.

Job done.
