    Default Are multiple accounts allowed at the same address

    Hi,

    I have just set up a personal e-bid account and before I proceed , I just wanted to check I can set up a business account at the same address using my business email etc.

    Also other family members may want to switch from ebay to e-bid so there may be three different accounts at the same address. is this allowed

    Cheers
    Andy - a very happy new e-bid user

    Hi,
    just in case multiple accounts at the same address may be a problem I have created a store on my personal e-bid account just to have a test and see if I could do what I was hoping to.

    entered one item starting tomorrow, if any one has any advise / constructive criticism it would be appreciated.

    the only problem I have found is that the store is tied to my personal email and not the one I use for my business which my despatches also have access too.

    Is an additional email address possible for items listed in the store only

    Thanks in advance Andy

    Hi Support have confirmed I can have multiple accounts
    so I now have an individual and a business account

    this account is set up and running perfectly - might have to ask my dad to buy one of my items just so I can say I have sold something!!!!

    my business account is partially set up but with no items or subscription as yet so we are nearly their - store and listings will be set up shortly once a few items have been sold and the PayPal / bank account topped up a bit

    Cheers

    I'd seriously advise against it as it would be classed as shill bidding by eBid, even if it were a buy now item, & they take it very seriously, & don't even allow it for charity listings.

    That is why most of us with more than one account, or with family members who also have accounts tend to make it clear in their forum signature. In fact I've blackballed my family & they've done the same to me

    I have just checked the help for what to do, seems fairly clear, so I am of to wrap the parcels ready for an address label, thought I might as well get that done while I wait for a possible sale,plus it will keep the dusk and damage free!!!

    I notice you have seller+ account.
    Why not try some items using the auto repost 10 X 10days they will get higher up the ebid searches than using the RUS
