How risky buy used accounts and it's worth time to try?

[mexi]

Hello,

I never buy old account, is it worth to try it?

You need to change all details, name, email, phone number, add new bank account.

I believe it's hard to do it without suspension, anyone try it recently?

an old established seller account will not be able to change ownership , it is only possible if account is a buyer account or seller account which only sold a little in the past but even here there is still risk of suspension

I believe is huge risk of suspension too.

But i read you can change the details, but probablly it should be bussines account.

That's incorrect. I did this a few months ago no issue.

that depends on the definition of "works" as the actual buttons on ebay work for all details incl. DOB , only country can not be changed

I think should be able to do it ,if not from the menu will need contact ebay to request the change

You said "an old established seller account will not be able to change ownership" which is wrong. I did it two months ago and I have had no issues.

ebay do not allow to change ownership of personal accounts , you can change it but on an established seller account you will not pass the new verification

Buying an old account is fine, if you have already had sales before it is much better... accounts older than a year with more than 10 fb--
The process you must follow if the account is not American and has Payoneer linked.
1. change passwords and email
2. change phone number
-----
That shouldn't be a problem for eBay.

The seller must give you account cookies, you have to have a good IP

[Freakzilla]

What you put is incorrect you just won't admit it.

Again you said "an old established seller account will not be able to change ownership , it is only possible if account is a buyer account or seller account which only sold a little in the past" you are wrong.

You should do it after purchasing the account, to prevent the old owner from taking it over again.

we are not in a court here , it is not about wording but the actual sense behind it

you can change personal details on ebay but ebay do not allow to change ownership of personal seller account. so if you legally change your name and provide proof it is fine you can consider it done , of course if some idiot does not decide that changing names is not acceptable and will ask you to open a new account after suspending the existing one

but to a different person? you won't pass verification

[Freakzilla]

Ok hun, you could of just said what you said was wrong or not what you meant, but you clearly can't bring yourself to do that. The fact is what you said is incorrect. x

I still did not understand , does change of ownership with subsequent suspension count as change of ownership? or only that without suspension?

[Freakzilla]

Below is what you put. Are you still saying this is correct? Because it isn't. This is all I am saying. There is no mention from you about personal or business account type.

You can change the name,say divorce or marriage.
