Buy things with stealth PayPal
 

Hello,

I'm trying to create a full mental image about this whole stealth PayPal business, so I'm really happy that I've found this forum, and that there's a channel where people like me can get info from the veterans.

I will be setting up my stealth accounts soon, and I already have some things that I would like to buy with the money that I will be receiving on them.

I'm in the EU, and I would like to get some pretty expensive IT stuff (6000-7000 EUR) shipped to me from Germany. The website accepts PayPal as a payment method, however, I'm a little bit concerned about the shipping address.

Will they use the PayPal address that is attached to the account?
How can I get around this?

Re: Buy things with stealth PayPal
 

They will only shipped to the confirmed / verified Paypal address, as would most businesses.

Damn, no way to get around this?
Can the confirmed address be something in the same neighbourhood? And when the package comes, you just tell the courier to come to a different address? (maybe even on the same street)...

What website is this?
You should add that address in your PayPal account, and use that as your shipping address. There should be no problem with that.

Yes, I forgot to mention that the website is not eBay. It's just a simple german website which accepts PayPal as a payment option.

If I add a whole new address, wouldn't that ring the bell, and flag my account?

You will never know if you don't try.

There are several things I wouldn't have been able to do if I just took every single piece of advice on this forum as gospel.

It should not flag the account. I've been doing it.
Been adding new addresses to my paypal accounts since i'm using reshipping companies, (obviously i'm outside US) and never had any problem. I have 2/3 reshipping address from US, 1 from UK, 1 from China, 1 from Canada, and a lot more. It's still up to you tho. Good luck.

Never had a problem adding my actual address to PP's I want to buy things with.

I agree with James. There are plenty of aspects of the stealth bible that are flat out false.

Thank you for this!
But what if it's a US account, and the shipping address is in EU?

Re: Buy things with stealth PayPal
 

Then I don't think you'd be able to confirm a USA address regardless, unless I'm mistaken. I don't have experience with EU accounts but I don't think you can use USA credit cards or VCCs with them.

If you’re in eu, change your flag to the country you live in so we don’t give you bad advice.
