Adding Credit Card to Ebay Seller Account!

jarrodskeeter · #1 07-17-2012

Hey,

I recently opened an ebay account using my buddies name since my other account was recently banned. I need to sell on this account and ebay is asking for a credit card for opening an ebay seller account.

What should I do?
Is there a good gift card to use for this at the moment?

I really don't want to get this account banned.

Do you plan to use the same credit card you put on PP?

Does your buddy know? If it goes wrong he may not be your buddy much longer

Don't do business with friends and family. Business is about profit. And you should profit from Fam and friends. Also Don't increase risk for your friends account when you are a risky identity. Would you want him to jeopardize your account if he was a risk?

If you are banned and you use ANY of your personal info that you used on the other banned account, sooner or later your friends account will get flagged.

Count on it.

Welcome to the forums. If you read around, there are a few that work well. About using your buddy's info...well, if you read around, you may find that stealth is still best to do.

All the best.

Then do not use your FRIEND's info.

Business and friends never mix.

What happened to your banned account?

My friend doesn't mind haha. I asked him believe me, he doesn't even want any profit. I originally got banned for selling phony windows 7 copies that at the time I did not know were not legit (I'm a dumb***). Anyways later on my account got banned. Now I want to sell ipods that I am repairing and I don't have an account. I want a personal account to sell from and want to ship from my address but don't want my bro or dad to get banned if there linked.

How nice!

Stuff the friend up but look after family.

Dont continue to be a dummy.

Plan correctly and you can have your own business not ruining family or friends.

Yes I agree I did not want to get friends involved. I want a personal account without screwing my family OR FRIENDS! haha.

I am not trying to pull any illegal scandels either. I just want to sell iPods on a legit account that I can control all the payments coming in and out.

Good. Great start.

For now leave that friends account alone. ( well alone).

Could you afford a PO box for an address?

Do you know if you have cleaned up your computer to not link you to old accouts

How much is a P.O. box I have never looked into it?

And I haven't been doing anything not to connect the accounts. I haven't really logged into the account at all and don't plan on it. Because I believe it will link the accounts if I do that.
