Moving States, address change questions
 

I have a stealth account registered down south, and I will be moving up north in the US, multiple states away.
My question is, what should I do about the address linked to ebay and paypal?
I have searched quite a bit and haven't found much about moving to a different state, mostly people looking to put a new return address.
Will it raise red flags using a IP address in a new state and having the registered address in the old state?
What about using a VPN from the original state, but then I would still be shipping from the new state?

I have US eb/pp accounts that routinely use IP from different states without problem.

e.g. An account based in TX uses California IP and an account based in WA uses New york IP...no issues - same country IP has not been a red flag for me

IP is very minor. a lot of cell phones will use different ips.

cookies is bigger deal

So even with the IP going to be in MI instead of FL, it wont be a problem logging in everyday? I'll still be using the same computer so the cookies will be there.
Also what about the tracking showing I shipped from MI instead of FL?

Nope, won't matter. Just make sure you are indicating a similar "shipped from" zip code in the EB when preparing the shipping label so you are paying postage from the correct departure point of the item.

I add my correct shipping address to the label after it's PDF printed, removing the stealth addy. That way if an item cant be delivered it is not lost.

Ok so change the zip in the "shipped from" on the print label page got it.
and by changing the address in the PDF, do you mean don't print it right from ebay shipping, instead save it and change the return address to your actual address? That won't help with returns tho right since the address isn't on ebay, just in case it can't be delivered to the address?
Thanks for the reply
