Buying with stealth account
 

I want to buy some items on ebay using a stealth account to raise FB.
It's a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name and friends mailing address. Any ideas on how to pay for the items I buy on ebay? Obviously I do not have a CC in the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name. Can I use a CC in someone else's name? Thanks for the help guys!

To raise feedback for selling?

Those buying feedbacks won't count towards your trust level if that's what you're trying to do.

Best way to pay for a purchase is by PayPal, open it in the stealth name and open a PayPal account in your own name, use that account to fund the stealth PayPal account under friends and relatives and use that account to pay eBay.

With regards to use of CC specifically Jnycat, you can use a CC in different name as long as address matches up - by default, the name on the CC cannot be seen so any name can be used...

Sure it can be done without any apparent problems.

But as saijin said, it achieves nothing other than adding to the fairly meaningless feedback number. (If a buyer of your goods looks at your feedback they will not see anything).

Would I buy goods with a made-up name, mismatched credit card, being sent to a friends address, no I wouldn't.

Before you know it you'll be getting the 'your account poses a risk to the community' email as a buyer before you've even sold anything...just a thought.

I don't know how it works in America, but here the name does not have to match

You can have multiple shipping address in your Ebay account.

nice idea to keep on separate accounts and keep unlinked

Thanks foe the replys! I guess there's no point to buying stuff if it doesn't raise the FB though..
