YO Tell me I'm crazy??? Is it me or is eBay nolonger allowing paypal as a deposit method?? and will be soon riding them as payment method. What The Flying F!#$ Is Going On in this parallel universe I'm now stuck in. It's like i'm in the twilight zone or something.
I have been doing stealth for going on 10 years, about 5 years ago I said F ebay and just went with paypal stealth. I still always used ebay through this time to buy inventory etc. Now randomly I decided to get back into the stealth ebay game (which seems to be more difficult and easier at the same time) however to my surprise ebay is now depositing the funds directly to your bank account oppose to through paypal. And now it looks like in 2023 when the paypal and ebay contract/agreement ends paypal wont be used on the site at all.
This is very interesting to see how the community will react and adapt. I'm so damn late to this info I didn't even know the community adapted already with what seems like little no hiccups. I surely thought a shift like this would have been enough to wipe out more than half of the community. We're like cockroaches we can survive any storm. I'm curious to know how this works with international accounts.
I look forward to the benefits of the new ebay. Please share anything you feel I or anyone else who's been under a rock may find useful. Long live the stealthy.

It's great if you don't burn through hundreds of accounts.
Treat your account well, you will be making more money than ever as there is less competition now from the dodgy account holders.

Some other news while you've been gone, there's been a nasty case of the flu for the last two years. Whatever cave you've been living in, I suggest you go back inside.

Let me try one more time, What you can't do, others can. I made a stealth account yesterday and another today. The new mandatory requirements aren't stopping me and many others.
P.s. Using Phake information is always bad, even on the old eBay. The mistake many make is thinking that "Stealth Account" means account with "Made up information" which is not true.

MP basically eliminated stealth. All real accounts moving forward.
