thinking about upgrading to business account.

[siashay]

hey all, I am thinking about upgrading my accounts to business. Mostly because what I sell is a little rare and I have been noticing lately that I have been selling to people I sold to on my naru'd account.

I am under the impression, that when you have a ebay/paypal business account that you invoice the buyer with your business name and email address and that they buyer doesn't have your name. Is this true?

Plus what are the requirements for upgrading to a business account? do you have to have a business license or a website?

From PayPal: Business accounts allow you to do business under a company or group name, accept all payment types for low fees, and accept payment from customers without PayPal accounts. Business accounts include all of the benefits of Premier accounts, as well as our special features.

Last account I upgraded I needed a confirmed bank account, a prepaid card (simon) and a business website. That's all I believe.

No licensee man. Just upgrade, you can go back later on. All it does is allows you to write a business name there.

I would not bother with that.

yeah, but it is a risky account, instead of making up a name I used my own name just spelled different. (this was my first stealth account). The address i used is a friend who lives down the street. So if an old customer saw my name and google the address they would see how close the old and new address are.
I never screwed anyone on ebay so I guess there would be no reason for any of my "old" customers to turn me in. A few even wrote after the sus and asked if they could still buy from me without ebay.
But you know there are "people Police" out there. Who like to butt into other people's crap.
