Default Po box address

Ok im really got everything to start the process and po box seems the way to go for address (since using my folks restaurant is bad idea, as well as using mcdonalds, and virtual address (can't seem to find one in seattle). Since the guide said po box is kind of bad idea but reading on here says otherwise I'll stick with po box.

1. So should I go to one that is about 5 to 10 mile radius of where I live?

2. Is uses the cheapest to get po box address around 15 a month? Can I use this for ebay and etsy?

3. If something happens to my account, I can cancel po box anytime before getting charged again right?

4. I already ask this question before but
To confirm.. I use VPN that says ip is in texas.. if my po box is in seattle it should be ok right as long as it's in usa... I'm sure ebay will call or something.

Has anyone used mcdonalds address before.. I think it's quite funny.

You can look for USPS or for Mom & Pop store boxes.

Before you sign a contract with anyone, check their terms regarding cancellation.

What happened to a dongle?

No longer funny using McDonalds as it fails address check.

1. That is fine.

2. It depends on the post office or box rental place. it ranges from $30/6mo to $100/6mo

3. Once you paid, it's not refundable. But you can perhaps ask them to change the box number albeit you still will be asked why you need to change it.

1. Yes
2. $15/month? Too much. I paid $32/6 month at USPS
3. Just don't pay for renew, they will lock your box
4. VPN still a bad idea. Don't know why you still love it
-McDonald => NO (will be hit with 0/0 limit)

Whoa so much things to do before setting account. But I've done my share of business and they say "it's all in the setup"... with that said... ok I didn't know that it was Contract based...I guess no po box has per month to month...

Yes dongle... only reason I seem to stay away from dongle/wifi tethering is that if I don't get connection on phone it's very frustrating. .. but I guess it's worth it since I'll only be using it too list items and message buyers and can do all that in one sitting when connection is good. So I'll have to cancel my VPN or keep my VPN and I use it for trial purposes and report back to you guys ...

Ok 30$ for 6 months aint that bad, if i'm able to use it for ebay and etsy.. But if both gets canned, asking address change would be tricky.. seems there is no reason for to change.... (unless.. i say something like... people keep mistaking address number so can i change it to more easier number)... haha thats all i could think of for now..

Don't pay for a renew if your account went south. If you don't pay for renew you don't get access to it

With USPS you CAN'T change the box number for whatever reason you have.

Tony: USPS can actually change the PO box number if you request. This is may actually depend on your location. So your experience could be different.

Can't believe I just saw this. I made a verified paypal and ebay account today, but I've used the address of a Greggs shop (it tells you to do such things in the guide). Is this account useless now, as it won't pass address test in the future?

Users also get told to READ the forum in conjunction with the guide.

eBay Stealth is the bible and the basis of stealth.

The forum has the active comments on life a la stealth.

You made massive issues for yourself down the line, imo.

I know, and I adjusted other things that I've read on forum. I just didn't think of this part.

So there will be problems, but is it still possible with some hard or crafty work down the line, if you know what I mean?

Thanks GB

Always great to think outside the box, yes.
