Default virtual.address and buying

As youre all aware, im in process of first go at stealth. Because i was originally going with real name, i bought a virtual address. Under all your advice, i used a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name now but the problem is buying. I want to buy from account to make it look like a new account but i KNOW that my virtual address will only accept mail in my own name. Bit puzzled.what to do. il.know.next time to get a po box:-)
I had toyed with the idea of buying real.cheap clothing items and let them.send to virtual address..even though i wont get them. But virtual address.company will obviously know its using a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name wouldnt they unless i.only dobit twice and i deny all knowldege if they ask?

I wasn't aware, but congrats and good luck . If you are buying stuff from your stealth account and delivery to virtual address then why dont you just send to your real name at real virtual address? how are they going to know its you?

You don't have to tell the seller anything, but worth checking his terms in case he only delivers to PayPal registration addresses, otherwise PayPal cannot offer them protection. When you complete checkout it will prompt you for the name and address of where you want it delivered

I understand what your saying but im nervous with a new account that i could mess.it up. Like you said, who wants to sell with no protection. What happens if they dont check address on paypal. I always send to ebay listed address and there have been times when people have not received coz they gave new address in paypal and i didnt.check. hope im making sense lol

Default Re: virtual.address and buying

I have several stealth accounts and one of those accounts is a variation of my real address (with variation of my real name). I use this account to purchase items and haven't had any trouble having items delivered. I don't purchase on my other accounts and haven't had any trouble (knock on wood) with only selling on those accounts.
