I used to run multiple eBay accounts with my IPhone and never had any issues clearing browser data / resetting IP. But you have to be able to keep track of the IPs unless you want to risk linking them. Don't use the eBay/PayPal app, stick to the browser.

Keep in mind using your phone is a lot more risky than setting up user accounts on a computer.

I've never tried it myself purely because I've not got accurate info and understanding on how the mobile devices actually work, BUT I've read here that using an app is a big nono? Please somebody confirm or call my bull****.

I wouldn't do it. Apps are the kiss of death.

Factory reset will work.

Be careful with responding to emails. You click on links etc, you will link all the accounts you have on your phone even if youre in a completely different email account. Ebay will just see that the same user logged in to multiple accounts from one phone.

You can reset the phone 100 times, The Apps already have recorded enough info on your phone to identify it.

The app records all sorts of identifying info from your phone.

When you download the app it tells you exactly what info they have access too.

My advice is to stay away.

No.

When you have had the APP on your phone before and used it with an eBay/PP before it cannot be reused with any other account without the risk of linking.
