Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

In my infinite wisdom on my second stealth, I created an account with a female name.
I am not a female :pout:
How would I go about getting a limit raise (currents stats are 10 item / 2.5k)

Thanks :P

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Helium?

Or maybe ask a female friend if you really do need to call. You should get increased naturally though if your happy to wait it out

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Wasn't there a service out there that dials your number, masks the called ID and can even change your voice?
I saw it couple of weeks ago.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Slightly awkward if the voice changer fails half way through the call:lol:

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Haha wow, not sure if i have the balls to try that lol.

Prolly the best idea (the second one lol)

That sound great, thou it depends on how good the changer is.

Let us know which route will you go and the results. Thanks.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Then you are already halfway there! :lol:

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

LOL :lol:

good point.

P.S.: sex related threads always make people laugh and jocking http://r18.imgfast.net/users/1813/22.../765500672.gif

I know some people who have female names and call in with their male names without issues.....

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

When creating accounts, I have found it best to use androgynous (unisex) names.

Andy can be a male or female. So can Mickey or Terry. There are hundreds of these names.

This way, you can call in, or anyone working with you can call in regardless if they are a male or a female.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

I have created accounts in female names and just talk quietly - works :)

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

I have heard of people just talking normal and then when the issue was pressed that they werent a woman or man the person said they were transgender...end of that discussion!

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

I still feel that James is onto something here, go with helium.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

wtfebay Aye that transgender excuse would shut them up quick ! lol
anyway I know someone that just called and did a girl voice and everything was fine .

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

What's the point of making stealth with female name?

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Just sound gay.

I'm sure within 10 min practice you can pull it off....

It's all in the lisp.

We live strange times, they can get in VERY deep trouble if they question your authenticity and you make it known they're in the wrong.

It's all about tricking yourself to be him or in your cause her for the short time your on the phone. The skills we learn from stealth......LOL

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

eat a lemon and hope for the best, fyi always make a account with a MALE name if you are male because they will ask if you dont fit, which will lead to problems.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

You can try and get away with it, maybe you just have a deep voice for a woman.....

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode of the man with a woman's voice :lol:

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

:lol: exactly.

Who are they to judge me? Hahaha.

Will it be awkward yes, ONLY if you don't fully commit. Hahahaha

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

To quote Cartman (from Southpark)

Just say you're a "transginger".

Problem solved. :lol:

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

nek minit ginger ebay rep :doh:

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

You can use voice changer software though....or try speaking like girl, they wont mind helping you out... lol

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

hahaha.. that would be great idea too..

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

I wonder why to use an incorrect gender to make stealths at all.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Exactly

Don't get that, unless it your family member that you needed.

For made up name, use the right gender

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

I would not worry about it too much. Just call them. Odds are is that you will have a foreign rep anyhow. I have called many times to PP with a female account name and my voice (male). I never had an issue with it nor was questioned.

I think of it like this, would you walk up to a fat chick and ask if she was pregnant? Voice is the same way. They probably dont want to be rude about it.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

talk quietly, and think of it from their end.. are they going to call you on it.. Urr Sorry I dont believe you are a woman sir?? takes some balls!!

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

ive called in using a female info before. they didnt question me at all. i have a very very very deep voice. pretty sure its not allowed to question someones gender nowadays.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

:amen:
Hopefully people learn from this

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Options
1. Get a voice changer program or device. They exist.
2. Get a girl friend.
3. Tall them you're a tranny and change your eBay I'd to "TrannySuperStore". You may want to upload a tranny picture on your eBay profile. They can't discriminate you for that.

What were you thinking BTW?

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

I have called in as Anita and I have a husky voice and still have the account 3 years later. In this day and age I don't think it is going to raise any questions. What if Caitlyn Jenner has EB account and called in? I have an account that is 10 months old sell 95% of my limit and never had an increase. I am not about to risk it by calling in the 1st place. Not a good idea.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

rent a call girl have some fun with her then get the call girl to make a call for you.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

All this time I've misunderstood the meaning of a CALL girl :pound:

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Lol, nice one Speeder!
:clap::clap::clap:

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Well in 100% non stealth real life I have a female name and I am quite male. Very few times in history has it ever been an issue.

The couple times I have ever been questioned I say, "That is MR My Real Name" and that usually clears things up.

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

"thats mister jennifer to you sir!"

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

Exactly!

Hey, you can always offer a taste test!

Re: Wrong gender calling for limit raise
 

One time I had to call in as a 75 year old vet. I was 19 at the time so I had to emulate a southern accent and tell war stories while I was on the phone. Felt bad about it but it got my account released. I prefer accounts with old birthdays because I can pretend to be a senile old man who doesn't know eBay policy. I mean I go full into it. Like one time I played an old farmer who kept yelling into the background and telling my made up grandson to stop trying to milk the bulls!
