if £20 is going to make the difference between success and failure i'd say you haven't thought about it properly.
no, hence the "i need that £20 lol!" but also you should be aware that everyone's circumstances are different, so there may indeed be people who have very little funds to plough in when beginning, and simply need just a few sales to go full throttle.
so, anyone have answers to my three questions posted in last message?
The complete step-by-step guide to get back to selling today!
just seen a few poundlands finally beginning to stock ibux cards again. Will be buying soon: the £20 thing: you buy this from the shop for £1, then call them/go online and have to put a minimum of £20 on it? 1) I'm assuming you pay them via your real debit or credit card? 2) Is there then any way to get this £20 back into your pocket off the ibux card? I'm probably missing something obvious, but don't want £20 just sitting on this card for no reason when the card will never be used for anything (as it was only bought for stealth registering purposes)- I need that £20 lol! 3) What's the difference between buying this and buying a uk-verified VCC from a seller here on the site?
You could try topping it up with 30 and then the next time you register another car top it up with £28. So you should get 5 cards out of it. The last card just use it to buy shopping or something. This is just my thinking as I am going down the entropay route as I couldn't find any of these or similar cards even in the stores it says on the websites.
Can you still create new entropay card by transferring £3, as I just made a second one and it said a tenner?
^^ thanks. just doing some more browsing of the forums and come across a few posts that say "if you only need the card for verification purposes it's quicker and cheaper to just buy one from one of the sellers here."
what's the difference?
I've never bought/used pre-paid cards before so am still not quite 100% on their use for new accts.... in what situation is it best to buy for example an ibux card and put £20 in it, and in what situation is it best to buy from a seller on here instead? I'm confused by the few posts I've seen re: my first paragraph where people say choose one for one situ, and one for another situ: surely all VCC's are being used for verification?
If it makes any difference, on my new acct I am looking to sell only, not buy.
the cards on the forum, are one off use, they do not fund your fees or purchases, all they do is verify the paypal or ebay. you get seperate ones for eb and pp...
thanks oompah, so considering my post above, seems like my best bet (and cheaper) is to get a card from the forum? like i said i am not looking to buy, only sell, and won't be using the card to pay fees either (doing via pp or postal order).
as far as i was aware i only needed this for pp purposes so need one card.... eb already has the bank acct details, at what point would i need a VCC for them?
^^ thanks, can you just clarify this part "same with bank account" - if you have a vcc attached to pp, eb don't need one, which i now get- what does "same with bank account" refer to?
paypal needs a back up source on file so asks for a card alongside bank acc.....
if you always keep some money spare in balance for refunds and fees, you should be ok with a forum card, it has year expiry and is about £13 ish?
mmm, I would not mess with PO for fees, that could mess up plans.....remember if they do not get fees from balance they next go to card, if card is blank then it is bank they take from next .........and taking from bank is not a good idea if you are in stealth mode, due to name on credit.

think he just means eb do not need bank acc...ie. it is paypal you attach it to..

Yeah, sorry for the late reply.
It is just the way you have written the reply(diamonda), that ebay has your bank account details. Ebay only need your paypal address and it is paypal that need the CC/VCC and bank account details.
