How to order on ebay under stealth?
 

Ive gone stealth since my paypal account was limited for being "linked". account was 14 years old :surrender:

My question is, is there a way to buy on ebay? The only way I can think of is emailing the seller and asking if they will ship to a different address?

VERY BAD IDEA!!! It is only a matter of time before the system will catch the address in the email and link you.

SOLUTION: Go get a mailbox somewhere. Just make sure you dont use "PO BOX" when putting info in paypal and ebay.

As Amazon stealth suggested, get a P.O Box and create a stealth account to go with that P.O. Box

Just about all P.O. Box places let you put the address as a regular address, example:

if its P.O. Box 123, they let u use it in the following way;

Stealth Name
12234 Street Name #123 (#123 being your box number)
State, Zipcode

Didnt know this. did some googleing and found out the ups store has po boxes. Do they allow packages that dont fit in your po box? Does usps do this too?

Danger of that is the seller could report you to ebay.

Follow the help suggested by AS & marysman78.

Good Luck

In my state they wont allow mail to come in that does not have your real name on it. And if you add anyone you have to have a photo ID.

The UPS store might work but the last one I tried also asked for anyone getting mail needs to come in.

Did the business name thing and they asked for a business card and letter head.

The OP can open a stealth account with his real info to the new address (P.O. Box) and it should be fine.

This is very simple. Create a pp/eb with your real info. Do NOT turn it into a seller. Use it for buying only and you will be fine.

Users are reporting getting such accounts suspended.

It's no longer as good as it used to be :juggle:





apology to Loop for the confusion x

What do you mean buyers are reporting? Isn't he the buyer? I'm confused now. I thought all he wanted was to buy things from eb. In that case this shouldn't be a problem.

Users are getting suspended when they make fresh buyers accounts.

Soz, Loop .

Edited now :tears:

I was able to open PO box in real name, & being a female, was able to use Maiden last name & middle name for stealth. Was also able to add a legit cc in stealth name, & show to po box clerk in order to recieve mail at box.

Use a variation of true name for stealth to get mail at box.

I like the concept of po box.

Whenever I buy something from ebay I use an acc thats attached to my sisters address which is afew miles away from mine, its a bit of a hassle asking her to wait for my package; but its the safest thing i know =x :brushteeth:

Just use your first name and last initial on shipping no problems here doing it since ebay opened..

I use a service where I have parcels delivered to a newsagents near me for £1 per delivery, regardless of the size (I have had 20kg parcels and they still charged only £1, and letters and they still charged £1 lol). It works fantastically and I never have to worry about waiting in for large/expensive deliveries any more. I just pick it up at my convenience.

Hmm... well then i guess im lucky. I got 2 buyers on my real address which is was suspended. Both still work fine.

So just to confirm, I can use my real name under a different address? I thought that was a nonono?
