VPN to hide Ip Address
 

I have read the ebay guide an they talk about not using commerical proxies seeing that ebay will see ALOT of users all connecting with the same IP Address.

What about using a VPN, you can get a cheap Windows VPS box with a dedicated ip address and setup a VPN so ebay will see the dedicated ip address that i own. Do you for see any problems with doing this?

Thanks
Mike

Hi, VPN & VPS are fine but only if you use the right company and find a reputable provider. The cheaper it is the more likely its overused.

Cheap =nasty=overused on paypal/ebay=risks of being limited.

If your base is really the USA you have other options that allow a new IP.

Expand on your plans so we can offer other options.

Also it is important to note that you should find a VPN that retains IP address for several days at least and not changing every minutes or else Paypal will limit you of someone trying to access your account if it sees your IP changes very quickly. Trust me on these, it happened to me.
