Hello,
I have a question, I have a VCC issued in UK, but my account is from Lithuania, and the VCC issuer is from Lithuania, but they use that UK system. So main question is if it is possible to pay with VCC (When I registered I put my real address) ebay fees when ebay is registered under other billing address (I want to pay fee's under eBay registered address)? Do they check billing addresses?
Paying fees with paypal is best way. I have been doing so for about one year an no issues. This is given that you are doing everything correctly when setting up your accounts. If you dont do everything correctly, no matter how you pay you are bound to get limited!

How you operate may not be how other people operate. I stand by the recommendation of paying with a VCC in advance of paying with paypal automatically.

Can not and will not agree.
Why on earth would i want paypal to touch my bank account?
I use VCCs to make payments to keep control of my affairs.
Been working for a mere 11 years if you would like to know.

Alright, I have read through this entire forum and found MOST of the information to be a bit dated. I have an Ebay and Paypal account under a friend's name and old address. I am using my son's mobile number for my Ebay account which I used to get the verification PIN. Now when I went to create my first listing I am getting prompted to set up a method of paying my Ebay fees. After reading this forum I think I'm going to bypass paying fees through paypal for now and just use a pre-paid CC. What prepaid cards are still good for paying Ebay fees? This of course will be the card I have on file, I am aware I can make a "one time payment" using different cards.

You are based in the US truly? Vanilla Visa works as does Entropay
Now let me just make sure I've got this right. I never really intended on needing a stealth account until recently. My reasons for having one aren't necessarily for goods that are popular for being ⊗⊗⊗⊗d but rather just for a few items I'd rather sell under a different name. A friend of mine three years ago created an Ebay and Paypal account that was meant to be our joint account. We never really had a chance to use our new joint account but rather just used our personal accounts for items we collected. Recently I came across some things I'd like to sell however for personal reasons I don't want it to be traced back to my personal name, just in case. Both the Ebay and Paypal account have NEVER been used. They were both created under his name and address, he has since moved far away and these accounts have been stagnant for about three years. Am I missing anything here? When I went to create my first listing Ebay wanted me to either link my paypal account or provide a card to pay for Ebay fees. If I obtain a Vanilla Visa and go to register this online I'd of course be using my friends name and zip code then that's it? Nothing else I should know about? The Paypal account has no credit card or bank account linked to it either. My plan was to just send the money to one of my other paypal accounts through the "send money to friends/family" option. Again, I'm not trying to necessarily dodge Ebay with this account, I'm just trying to make the public think I'm someone else is all. The items I'd be selling wouldn't be suspicious items either.

Why do you need to use your friend's name? Just because the accounts are registered in his name right?
As for sending money between PP accounts...that's not a good plan - you can be limited from sending money between PP accounts - why not add a bank account and withdraw?
Yes that is correct, because both accounts were created by him using his own name and address.
I was not aware of any limitations of send money to friends and family via paypal.
I'm not talking mad money either I'm talking less than $2,000. Is there any other reason I shouldn't do this that I'm missing?
Also I know ZERO about creating a VBA. Gathering from what I read in this forum I can simply go to a bank and open a checking account and simply use that for the paypal account? Because all my other bank accounts are used for my three other selling accounts that are under my name.
I always pay fees by a manual payment during the month. I've made payments for my current ebay account fees from more than one paypal account and even using the Paypal "Pay by Credit Card" option which means you don't have to sign in.

I thought linking a PP to my bank account was what we were all doing.
I've been paying my Ebay fees using the linked PP acct for all my stealth account for a few years now.
This is what Aspkin's book teaches--and it's the method I've read about in this forum as well. The way to get your money out of PP is to withdraw it to your bank account, yes?
