As stated.

ebay have control.

Account plus all info is not usuable again.

Fresh start needed.

Ideally this topic should have been hitched to your story

Even if you could close it, you could not create another in the same info. Stealth time is important.

I Understand your Question,,,The answer is you cannot close it,,,But my Question is what would be the advantage to you if you were able to close the account???,,,I cannot see it,,,

As for stealth, I Know what the book says, but I FIRMLY believe that it is best if ALL the information is FRESH, NEW and COMPLETELY different from ALL of the past accounts that you have been associated with both directly and indirectly

I agree with what this last joker said.

Not worth the time.

Ebay will do that for you.

If you think you can game this system by closing it to open another one with all the same inf----- its NOT going to happen.

Time to move on. Many have already done the work for you and failed.

There are a few reasons why I want my account gone –

1- So I don’t accidently log back into it
2- My account name was Armed-Electronics, I have a registered business under that name as well as a domain and web store ( which is currently in active) and when people Google search armed electronics the first thing that comes up is my ebay page with no longer a registered user and negative feedback comments, which is not a good look :P.
3- I was also hoping that there would be a way I can request eBay to delete my information. But as you guys said above this cannot be done.

You are in deep poo with this.

I never will have an ebay account with a matching website just for this reason.

You should have tweaked the ebay name a bit.

You might have to start all over from scratch as you cannot send your customers from ebay to this website as someone will turn you in.

If you did this once before you can do it again.

Time to get your new website and new ebay name going.

Look into a website with a similar name that is available.

Might be a way around this and hope someone else can chime in.
