Suspended but want to buy on eBay...
 

Any ideas on this, guys? I was suspended months ago and can no longer sell or purchase under my old account. I do have a stealth account, but clearly, purchasing with that wouldn't make sense due to the different name and address of course.

Anyways, there's some things I'd like to purchase, and now don't have the ability of doing so. Is it possible to register a new account under MY name, use it only for purchasing, and hope they don't close the account?

Simple get a ups or po box in your name for buying only! I have several setup this way!

You do know that buyers only accounts are not so looked at like sellers account. I have a real info buyers account that I buy all of my stuff. The info is linked to an old banned sellers account but I dont plan to sell on this.

So go ahead and make a buyers only account with your info. Remember, dont proceed any further than that.

Great. Thanks guys.

Many have said they opened a buyers only account with their banned address.

Cannot confirm it works but many have stated it has.

PO Box, UPS Box, local mail etc works for buying.

Better to go the way of using a PO Box UPS etc.

Avoid using the banned info for the longer term survival of the buying account.

ebay 'checks' even buyers accounts.

Since the option of 'other addresses' exist, go that way.

:juggle:

I agree.

Use banned address as a last resort. Should have added that.

:faint:

I use my banned address just for buying but any returns I get go straight to one of my PO Boxes at are not listed on any ebay account.
