buying account and guest checkouts
 

Before going stealth, i.had three ebay accounts with paypals attached. I have never been banned from paypal. Its only ever been restricted.
So if i were to rejoin ebay under real name and paypal in real name and.BUY.ONLY...there shouldnt be a problem should they.
As many of you know, i.made the mistake on my current stealth account in gettibg a virtual address which only accepts parcels in my real name. The thing is that i want to buy xmas stuff and the issue is that i want to buy lots and.it would cost me a.fortune in mail forwarding.costs.
Would this.be ok to do with just buying.
I had toyed with the idea of guest checkout but im.pretty.sure that i read someqhere that only big stores allow that and not small sellers. Is that.correct coz guest checkout would mean i wouldnt even have to obtain a.buying account. Thanks and sorry for all the questions im bombarding you with today

I dont know how exactly guest checkout works, but you can buy from anyone using it.

Im far from a big seller and I get guests buying all the time.

Try it out and report back.

It will create a temporary account with eBay and they will bug you to sign up as a full member, again info is stored

I will do. I used guest checkout recently for a.store with no problems but i thought id read somewhere that option is not available for private sellers. But im gonna.give it a go this weekend when i get paid and report back :-)

I was just gonna use a credit card once linked with ebay and paypal. I did that last week and it worked a treat and the stuff got delivered no problem.
Il ignore the requests to sell, il leave my stealths for that

Don't use any old information if you decide to do guest checkout

Re: buying account and guest checkouts
 

You can use guest checkout with your real information, just use a new IP, user account, and just use a real credit card and you will be fine in terms of linking into to your stealth accounts

By using a new user account and new IP YOU KEEP cookies separate, and than just use guest checkout with all real details , name , address, and a real debit or credit card(which u wouldn't have used on any stealth accounts hopefully) and nothing will cross

Or you can just create a separate account with real information just for buying, in most cases , unless you were banned for too many charge backs , or banned for buying, than eBay usually will give you no problems
