Stealth Buying
 

Ok, so I was looking to buy stealth accounts from the marketplace but all that Ive seen is that they work for selling only as they already put a name on the account and for me to buy something Id have to add my own card info, meaning I would be adding a card belonging to someone other than the name on the account - a red flag to PayPal Im sure. I am aware that I can just use the bank account that I will attach to the account but as we are all aware, there are scammers out there and PayPal buyer protection is sh*t, so I want to use a card so Im protected. Any suggestions?

you cannot use bank issued bank cards. Only prepaid cards.

If you want to buy stuff, you should make a buying account that is separated from your selling.

Yea looks like Ill have to do that...Im going to buy some things with the bank account as eBay has very, very, very good buyer protection but will make a PayPal buying account soon myself.

Create a buying account with your real details. Usually ebay doesn't have anything against buyers.
