Format pc and ebay/paypal
 

Well, I bought a new harddrive for my laptop.I already loaded os on other drive.Just took mine out and put new one in.Then switched back.
My question is,will there be any problem with ebay or paypal if login with new
drive and os?Or will they ask for info,call me or what.?It will look like im logging in from second computer.Thanks.

Should not be a problem, just make sure you get some browsing history going before you do any major task such as withdrawing from Paypal.

Ebay/PP looks for cookies, etc when logging in.

You'll be fine. I really don't get why some members here insist on beating the browsing history drum, it doesn't affect jack squat. I know from many years of experience that it's a load of malarkey.

You don't have to take the advice that's given....I'm sure your a Stealth Expert and been doing it for a long time but most of us will still give advice to others.

Its really better to have history than to not. Less flags that get raised with EB and PP the better.

Why take the chance?

We cater for a broad range of users.

Some are totally new to ebay.

Let them have some encouragement.

:mod:

I personally like to browse and bid a bit when moving to new computer - get cookies and such going...otherwise there will likely be a call with PIN confirmation required
