Pre 11/07 account changing of hands questions
I have the oppertunity to get my hands on a 2006 account that has been very active up until last month selling X widgets. The account is in a friends name, information, etc. That friend also has another account selling the same widgets with a very high feedback rating as well.
He wants to give me the first account. He said that he spoke to an ebay rep asking if he could give this first account away. He said the rep said, no problem. Interesting point...because I think this will be a BIG problem. I told him to discontinue contact with the rep until further.
So the questions I have.
1. In General...can this be done all at once? Name, address, phone, email change...IF you go through the account rep? Especially with a 2000 plus feedback account with 4.9DSR's.
2. How much leeway does ebay give accounts such as this when you switch the product you are selling? I would be selling trinkets, not vero but high risk, and he was selling widgets, not vero but medium risk.
3. What about account linking? I dont anticipate his other account going down, but how will ebay link these if we changed all the information?
4. Anyone have experience with this? Id make it worth your while to give some good advice other then the advice ive learned through searching in the forum.
