Stealth account? Really?

[undeadthebeast]

Right, new to this. Hey? everyone starts somewhere.

Question:
If you buy a paypal package, attach it to your eBay account and say you sell your MacBook, will the payment be released instantly, e.g. no waiting 21 days? or that BS?

Thanks.

Chances are the payment would be held for 21 days. It would totally depend on the PayPal account though

The ebay and paypal accounts will have completely different info. That in itself is a red flag for both ebay and paypal which will pretty much ensure the payment is held and will be a good reason for them to limit/suspend the accounts or at least review them. Add to that the fact the item youre selling is a high risk high end electronic and youre pretty much assured trouble.

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend it.

You're better own creating your own with help from eBay Stealth.

Or if you purchase an account, get both eBay/PayPal accounts and use that.

There's a fairly high chance of the ebay account being suspended if you decide to list a MacBook on a new account with no previous selling history.

If you did manage to get away with it, the funds will almost certainly be held for 21 days (or until proof of delivery could be established).

Chances are you will be back here, complaining that your account is toast. Macbook on a new ebay account = High risk.

Welcome to the forums OP - all the above posters are right on the money....macbook is too risky on a new account - especially with info not matching between eb and pp - expecting your funds to be held at BEST...but at worst, you could be limited and asked all kinds of things to provide and THEN still fail review
