Re: Buying agred ebay accounts
To the OP, nobody here knows you, or what you sell, or anything about you, other than what you post. So, when someone uses the phrase "limited in stealth techniques" they are probably talking generally, and it is not meant as an insult to you, personally.
I would just say that if you want an aged account, it might be better to buy an aged STEALTH account rather than one attached to a real person. It eliminates a lot of problems.
The name change is gong to go over like a lead balloon. If you buy an aged stealth, then there are no worries about that. If you want to operate a friend's account and give him money, either in one chunk or monthly, then be sure to clue him in on EVERYTHING that is going on, as he or she will be taking a risk. Search the forums, there is a lot of heartache about lost relationships caused by someone using another person's account. Even with the best of intentions, perfectly legal 100% authentic items and a great attitude, things CAN go south. This is especially true if the seller has a limited amount of money. One person used her mom's account (or was it her sister's???) to sell some auto parts. A buyer scammed her out of $2,000 for a set of car tire rims. She had already spent the $2,000 and could not reimburse PayPal, resulting in a collection agency coming after the account owner. As you can imagine, she was not thrilled. When that person posted, they were no longer talking to each other and she was heartbroken. That is why the best advice is always to use a stealth identity and not a real one.
So, it is not the fact that you want an aged account that is the problem, but that there is a real person attached to it. Of course, the final decision is up to you and your friend. The users here are just trying to help you to understand the potential downside of what you are about to do, we are not trying to insult you or to rain on your parade. I wish you luck with whatever it is you decide to do.
