7 year old account

[yeff]

Hi, I have managed to get a 7 year old Ebay/Paypal account from a friend, it has over 20 feedback score also.
What are the benefits of having this account?

Thanks

I believe you dont have to accept paypal as method of payment as you do with all newer (07 onwards) accounts.

Treat that account with care!

Maybe in the USA you don't, but here in the UK all accounts whether they are 1 day old or 11 years old have to accept PayPal.

You still need an active Pa yp al. How you operate the account is key.

Hi, the Paypal is running all ok, as he sold a few things a couple of years ago on it.
So will just start selling slowly on it and see how it goes, have already sold a few things and its great having no holds.

An account like that still has to be nutured even if that old.

What has happened, because every dog & his man has started to turn up on ebay with what were once grandfathered accounts, ebay now can treat them as new.

Keep that in mind as you go s l o w l y.
