What "new" address have you been using?
 

I know that I should use an address that is within 100 miles of my actual address because of IP tracking...but I don't have any family or friends addresses that I could use (I just don't want to get my friends involved and have them suspended too). Is it really OK if I use a random address like a Walgreens or something? 80% of the stuff I sell on eBay ends up being transactions outside of eBay and only into paypal since I don't list too many items and the items I sell are worth a lot of money

It is always a good idea to have a working return address.

You are lucky there is a lot of forwarding address companies in the USA.. You just need to find the right one for you.

The issue is that if you're account is flagged for MANUAL review, it can be found out...there are creative alternatives.

Can you explain the alternatives? Thanks

If that is your MO, then you should reconsider having an accessible address.

a lot of money makes it risky to not have access to an address.

May I advise you on something too? Overall, so long as your IP address is in USA, it does not need to have a 100 mile geo-location.

Your primary concern is to have your user account and cookies for the account.

Hope that helps you.

Post office box is a good option for one

So lets say I live in California and I have relatives who live in New York that have never made an eBay account. Its OK then to use their address even though I'm more than 100 miles away from them?

I use IPs for States that are far from my stealth address. E.g. Account is based in NY but I will use a WA IP ...

Many WA ip's - cellular network ones

Provided you have their OK.

But what about shipping time etc?
