I have a real paypal account that has been verified and paypal knows its 100% real and its mine. I had an ebay seller account connected to it then got suspended from ebay. Paypal stood strong and never got limited. Created another ebay seller account got suspended after 2 weeks. Paypal still stood strong. I have it till this day and i use it pretty often. I CANNOT risk this paypal getting shut down. So i was wondering what if i create a new ebay account with real info that is the same thats on the pp and ONLY purchase things. Will they suspend my ebay/pp?
Forgot to add, my only intent with this ebay account is for purchasing ONLY.

You will NOT be able to sell on Ebay using that Account,,so if that is your intention you need to go Stealth with Both Paypal and Ebay,,it is the Only way no "Loopholes"

As Slapped has alluded to correctly, do NOT think of turning it into a seller account later on. Once you have good feedback, there is always the inkling to do it and, while you may last for awhile, sooner or later, you will get shut down.

I have stealth accounts but i feel as if purchasing with them is only asking for trouble later on. Im just worried that this paypal will get shut down.

Any pp account can get limited for whatever reason - if you are buying sh*t from overseas, guarantee a limitation sooner or later - but if you are just buying from eb ay, you should be ok in general.

Hmm, i wonder if i contact ebay and be straight up with them wonder if they would let me create a buyer account with this paypal. The only bad thing is this paypal had 2 accounts that were suspended on it.

Geez so the pa y p al has had 2 eb ay accounts already suspended - that looks bad. Don't bother calling eb ay. I would really recommend moving activity off of this pp. Use a fresh one to buy. Use this for payments received off of eb ay.

Wouldnt this new pp/bay account get suspended/limited if they saw that im creating a new account with the same info as the the previous account that was suspended over 6 months ago?

Here's the thing - nothing is 100% foolproof with eb ay - I am actually surprised (and somewhat glad for you) that you pa yp al has not been killed. ANY eb ay account made with THIS pa yp al linked will lead to a "killage".
Consider this: You win an auction. Seller takes payment ONLY from pa yp al. Then you have to use this pa yp al - this one's info is different from your new eb ay account - can you imagine the amount of potential pitfalls that go down? They can "catch" you on 1) info not matching up 2) pa yp al used = 2 old suspended eb ay accounts 3) user is purposefully thwarting the site 3) list goes on and on...
Based on all this, it's very dangerous - BUT (and I say this lightly) I am virtually 100% sure that you will be able to open and operate an eb ay account FOR A WHILE...the hassle of never knowing when it will be shut down is up to you.
Another reason why stealth is good - easy to set up - peace of mind...especially when all you have to do is alter your name slightly and modify your address.
Take my info for what it's worth but I do wish you all the best. In your shoes, I might be tempted to try and keep an eb ay going for the hell of it while setting up new ones on the side.
All the best.

Thats very true, well if i decide to make a new 3bay/pp. Do you think i should go stealth or try to remake everything under real info and just use it as a buyer account. Knowing that i had 1 3bay account suspended with the real info. So this would be my second account being created with real info. Or just go stealth and edit shipping address whenever i purchase things?
I decided to share my pp story with this forum. If your surprised that my account has not been shut down take a look at the full story, that should surprise you. |

I really have just confused the hell out of my self. Let me just ask this question as simply as possibly. How do i create a buyer account? Do i use my real info? Or all stealth info and change the shipping address when i purchase items?
