Help Making Ebay Seller's Account!
 

I made a new ebay account after my paypal got closed and my old ebay account got restricted/put on hold. (That ebay account was made in 2005 :(

On the new ebay account I use all real info EXCEPT address and zip code. (using my friends address + zip)

I need to make a seller's account on Ebay. How should I do it? There are 3 options:
1. paypal
2. credit card or Debit Card
3 bank account with cc or debit card.

Now I read that if you use a debit card, the zip code has to AT LEAST match. My does not, so I cant use it?

Should I made a new paypal account? If I do then my last name (which isn't a common last name) will be the same as my closed paypal account. What should i do?


Thanks

You should have all different info from previous account, to avoid linking to old account. Also open PayPalaccount with same info as Ebay, different Ips, separate user on your desktop to stay on the safe side.
If they link any info to previously suspended account, this one will go down too.

I made ebay account with real info so I can use Merchant Plus with Authorize.net as my gateway. I DO NOT want to ever use paypal. They are terrible.

If you want to make a merchant plus account you have to use real info. Because it gets linked with ebay.

Yes you do, your merchant account has to have your real info, Ebay does't. If they ask to fax documents, you'd have to use the one in your real name and just be creative with it...;)
Oh, almost missed you said it gets linked with Ebay... Don't they all? I know people being creative with their merchant... I don't know how much has changed, but if you use cartmanager to check out, I think you are safe.
