come on guys help us back to Etsy!
 

wow, it seems impossible to create an Etsy stealth account,
come on guys if someone succeeds to make a new one. please tell us how we can do that.
at least give us hope that it's possible and we cant do it.
I spent money on VPNs proxies... nothing of these things works.

VPNs wont work at all in my experience.
Real credit or debit card is important.

Have you tried using your grandma,grandpa PC and see if it works,but you dont know until you make a sale?
get away from your own laptop.pc,smart phone,ISP,landlines,WIFI ,everything you have and go to another house .
Use grandma SSN,address,bank account

Re: come on guys help us back to Etsy!
 

yup it still works. making accounts like breathing air

Re: come on guys help us back to Etsy!
 

Still works, just have to get past the issue of them blocking some VPN users from even creating accounts

Re: come on guys help us back to Etsy!
 

offer some alternatives for countries that support paypal only stores ? :)

I did my first account week ago. I reinstalled my pc, got new card from bank, created new bank account, could not get thru with vpn so bought new sim card and using mobile data. Selling different items, before I was selling digital things, now doing shirts with POD. So far all seems good. Did 3 sells and so far no problem. Still have fear about the account but hope all will be good. I think if I could do it, as somebody who did not know anything and just learnt from this forum, everybody can do it.

How did you manage the verify ID part i wonder? Thanks for any advise!

Re: come on guys help us back to Etsy!
 

I did not need to send my ID, if they can verify the informations you put there, they don't ask for ID. I used friend's address, name and birthday. My bank account and card but put there her name. I don't know if it is how it should exactly be, but worked for me, even after few sells is all good so far.

have you been able to set up a new etsy account?

Re: come on guys help us back to Etsy!
 

In US, they verify per you SSN, and address and bank etc.. have to all match up. Not sure what options are to set up a new account here. Can anyone help?

Re: come on guys help us back to Etsy!
 

I set up a new etsy account while using a VPN from IP Burger.
Using my Aunt's information, her address, phone, social.
She doesn't use etsy at all and doesn't care. she gave permission
I have a Capitalone 360 checking that we are both on and it's only
used for etsy.

It's been working fine with the VPN so that might be a way
to get back on if you can find someone who will let you use
their info.

Re: come on guys help us back to Etsy!
 

does your aunt mind when IRS come calling saying she did not report her income from Etsy?
Or worse,her state asked if she has collected and remitted sales tax and use tax?

Re: come on guys help us back to Etsy!
 

Thank you so much. I will try what u said with my mother informations

Hey Unknown5454!
You seem to know alot about getting back on Etsy.

I currently have a shop running with a friends details but could never create another one using the stealth methods i use for ebay. I am running many ebay accounts stealth but etsy is different.

Here in canada we only have the option for direct checkout. You seem to suggest running an account out of the US or a country that still allows paypal? All of my PayPal accounts are Canadian and i don't really like the idea of my shop saying im in another country for the sake of buyers who want to know where the item is actually shipping from.

Can you give me any more advice about how to use direct checkout with stealth?

Your help would be much appreciated

Thanks!
