Can ebay see my information
 

Can ebay see my paypal information such as name bank etc on my paypal, even though they are two separate companies or can they just see the email address ?

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

They can see everything Paypal can see once your eBay and PP accounts are linked.

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

Yes, they can. Essentially they are still linked to each other and they'll remain that way.

What's in your mind?

He has several threads going about buying a Uk account off the forum. It is a business. Concern is names and required changes etc.

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

By default, it is wise to assume that eb and PP, although technically "separate", have access and share all info since they are inherently operating together from way way back

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

would i be ok to link a totally brand new paypal account with legit information to wifes ebay account who has no link to mine what so ever...

Here account is in very good condition over 600 feedback made in 2008, mainly buying feedback but ill ease into the selling on ?

My question would be, is it a problem linking a new paypal to a old ebay

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

Nobody can say for sure. First of all I wouldn't link it to the ebay account and just add it as the paypal address in the item listings. There was a Guide here somewhere by Empirestate that described how to do this. The method is very controversial among forum members. I did a similar thing once but with a paypal account that was already 1 year old and it worked great. Others here have other experiences.

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

You say your wife has "mainly buying feedback" which implies she's sold on the account before. Why not just use her PP account to receive payments?

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

Yes she has already been selling here and there on the account, i want to keep my earning etc separate thats why keeps it abit more simple..

Any guide on how to slowly link it

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

Easing into payments by starting with a very low volume and slowly working your way up from there is the best advice anyone can give.

It will never be a safe setup though.

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

So your advice would be make a paypal to match the ebay ? only issue i have its so hard with these new accounts to keep going, only reason i wanna use her account is thats a trusted account im guessing with all the feedback and how old it is

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

I understand the drawbacks but it would probably be safer in the long-run for you to start with a new eB/PP instead of attaching a new PP to an old eBay. If neither Paypal has been limited (yours or your wife's) then you might be safe. Nobody can say for sure if you'd be safe and nobody can estimate how long it would last if the setup isn't safe.

Usually if there is trouble it's because the new Paypal was linked to the old Paypal and the limitation on the old Paypal is applied to the new Paypal as well. Do you know what I mean? So by that logic there shouldn't be any reason for Paypal to mess with your new account, as long as you don't start receiving a large volume of payments very quickly.

I guess, if your wife is willing to let you use her account, you have nothing to lose by trying this out. Just be sure to take things slowly at first just like with any other new account.

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

I always create my Ebay/Paypal accounts in "Matching Pairs" and I also discard them in that way. So if one of my Ebay account goes down, I will also close the matching Paypal, and vice versa

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

Mine and my wifes paypal accounts are in really good condition no limitations or nothing, what i want to do is just create a new paypal to attach to my wifes ebay ? only my ebay is limited nothing else and slowly down the line i want to change the details on my wifes ebay account to match my new paypal details

so the end goal it to have my wifes ebay details same as my new paypal is that makes sense you think this would work/

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

Not a good idea. Many people have already chimed in on this thread to not do this.

You seem to have already made up your mind. This may work short term but will ultimately fail. Read through the stealth guide.

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

So KEEP them that way,,,,Create all the stealth accounts that you need and get to work,,,,,That is of course assuming that your true intention is NOT to get rid of your Wifes Paypal account, and even possibly your Wife as well

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

I feel like we're like Parrots, we keep telling people the same thing and they keep coming back wanting to do what they originally wanted to do.....Just let em do whatever they want to do.....

Yes assad, go make a new PayPal and attach it to your wife's eBay account....we will be here waiting for you when the new PayPal goes down along with your ebay account to help with that as well.

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

I am unsure but I read somewhere they can't see the name or address on the bank or LLC unless for verification but thats another thing. someone correct me if i'm wrong

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

Well I am SURE,,,,Paypal and Ebay share ALL of their Users Information, in BOTH Directions,,,, thats the TRUTH,,,,


Now,,for what you WANT to hear,,,,,,,,

Ebay and Paypal NEVER share information, so go ahead and do whatever you think will work best for you,,,,,,,,,,,,,NOT

Re: Can ebay see my information
 

OP was asking if eb sees the info on pp - this statement of yours is different in that pp and eb doesn't see the name on the bank account unless funds are sent from the bank account (uploaded)...or if the pp account owner PROVIDES the real name.
