Okay? Not sure why someone would make ID's for US stealth accounts when they aren't in the US, but more power to you. Unnecessary hurdles and money delays may be more feasible for some in the long run.

Hi guys!

I'm new here and really need help in creating a new et.sy account. I kind of get most of it but how do I pass the verification. I understand there are areas you can use to sign up without an ID? I'm also using ExpressVPN... is that recommended?

[JamesNorth101]

ExpressVPN do share IP addresses between users so its not really advised to use it

how do I mask my IP then?

[JamesNorth101]

Using a service like 24vc instead

eBay - I also use Merchant Accounts as it's cheaper for me given I do direct sales on some of my own websites.

Not doing something the same way every time has worked pretty well for me.

If you're shipping from the US, won't they catch on though. Or on the flip side, won't customers from the US be worried about not receiving their items timely if your profile shows you're on the other side of the globe?

No. How do you think foreign sellers have thrived for years? Half the time they barely pay attention to the shipping time and cost, let alone where it's coming from.

Do you know where I can find a list of the areas that don't require DC for Etsy?

I thought every country needs to provide bank info. It would be cool to know what countries still can accept payments through pp only.

Etsy has a list of the countries that require or have direct checkout. Soooo use ones not on the list.

Also has anyone tried to use for example USA IP address but register as European country?

Won't work, the countries won't be in the drop down menu displayed.
