Re: need information about buying with guest accounts
Sounds like dropshipping - eb is a little more loose on buyer accounts but if you do it repeatedly on one account, changing names and addresses...it can lead to issues
Re: need information about buying with guest accounts
can i for example use ebay as a guest and ship to a business address and use my card name and billing address that are my home address? Or can I buy using my friend's address and get the item delivered to a click & collect address?
Re: need information about buying with guest accounts
i think it seems that it's more reliable with sending products to physical household addresses than click & collect addresses. I think it could be because the click & collect addresses are busy during Christmas period, or ebay doesn't want lots of deliveries to click & collect addresses to free up the system. Do you reckon?

Possibility of that - but also possibility of big fraud potential

i really appreciate your patience and politeness with dealing with me here folks. And thanks for the helpful but limited info that you did provide. (genuine)
Re: need information about buying with guest accounts
It's risky. eBay might flag the purchase as suspicious because the contact information, billing address, and delivery address don't match. This could lead to the order being canceled.
