Getting back on ebay - using SAME address?
 

Is it a good idea to at least TRY and get back onto ebay with the SAME address?

Change ALL other details - IP number and using fresh login Windows IDs, new Paypal, new bank account - anything used will never have been used before.

Or is that a no go area?

If I tweak my name, will that be enough?

+ I could change the address to be 10a (instead of 10 for example)?

Is there ANY harm in trying?

Thanks.

(Been through the guide - I had already learned everything (by spending hours and hours and hours researching and reading all over the net).)

No. Not the way to do the job correctly.

Look for other options. They exist.

I hear what you say... the way I see it, the worst thing will be that they'll just ban me again. A single ban is no worse than a double ban?

Other options: all running and in operation already.

I just wanted to have in my name again. At the very least... just to have an account to buy with would be a good start - forget selling. (A**holes gave a lifetime ban - even for buying.)

I made those comments because I knew you would reply quickly.

The plan is hard to carry off for the UK because ebay are right there determining old suspended info is being re-used.

That means a bank account is wasted.

That means a card is wasted,

That means the IP is wasted.

What I always try to suggest is this;

Look for another address.

Do a name variation.

Be a new you.

Make sure your photos are cleaned.

You know your opening post was bluidy excellent.

You expressed yourself really well.

Whole post was a delight to read.

Have a think about what I said.

Do not commit to anything until you know you can beat ebay.

Cheers.

Never use any same details on your stealth accounts. No address, no name, no last name. No nothing.

You should read ebay stealth guide, it will help you to become a master of stealths :)

If you just wanted to buy, odds are you can create a BUYING only account without problems using everything the same.

But still, why not just use a Postal Box or equivalent to buy?

This doesn't make good sense. The same address is an almost certain link.

Re: Getting back on ebay - using SAME address?
 

The same address will not work for sure.

guys, thanks for the replies.
@GreenBean thanks for the awesome reply
yes, yes and yes - you are all right and i am wrong.
i think i'll get my whip out and give myself some lashes - must follow common sense and not wild crazy ideas in my head.

GreenBean is right: why the heck would i want to risk wasting a new bank account, new IP address and everything else????

i think i'll get away with it to be honest. BUT why why would i want to risk it! (just talking to myself. LOL) they might not get me today. but maybe after 5 customer complaints they might join the dots - there might be some sort of algorith that only runs after 5 complaints. BANG, you're caught!?

Re: Getting back on ebay - using SAME address?
 

why are you getting complaints?

Re: Getting back on ebay - using SAME address?
 

if you sell 200 items, u get complaints. :)
2 of them, you mess us up.
1 of them is a nutcase retard - but means well and is not lying - they're just mad.
and 2 of them are frauds who know exactly what they're doing.

have u not had similar experience selling?
