Buying on eBay using Stealth Account

[DanielPatrick]

Whenever you buy something from your Stealth accounts, how do you deal with the buyer as in to send the item to your residential address if it's ⊗⊗⊗⊗? Can you private message the buyer and give him the address of where you're living? And what excuses can you come up with if the buyer asks you why you're not using the name and address registered under your eBay / PayPal name?

You simply add a new shipping address during checkout. I've made at least 50 purchases this way in the last year and have not run into any problems. Seller's don't check to make sure your address is confirmed in Paypal, unless they are importing their orders directly from Paypal rather than Ebay.

I have at least one or two buyers daily message me with an alternative address after checkout, and every one of them gets the same response. "I'm sorry but we are obligated by both Ebay and Paypal to ship your order to the address provided during checkout. I will send you a cancellation request since you've used the wrong address, and you're welcome to place a new order with the correct shipping address."

Requesting a different address after checkout is a common scammer tactic and you won't find many sellers willing to do that for you.
