Re: Selling adult items w a stealth acct
There is no extra verification needed to sell in the adult category. You do have to agree that you're over 18 and that you will abide by their terms and conditions every time you click on a listing (even your own) in that category but that's just an annoyance at worst.
You don't need a SSN to sell in the adult category or to sell on eBay at all. You will need a tax ID number if planning to go near 200 transactions or $20,000 in sales per year, but an EIN is an acceptable tax ID number instead of having to use a SSN.
I'm not 100% as to whether or not you can list in that category right off the bat though because I always sell low risk items completely unrelated to my main items for 3 months.
ID verification only happens if they are suspicious about your account - meaning they think you're selling shady items from a questionable source, or if they suspect you were suspended before. Avoid suspicion and you will avoid an ID request.
