Can I have multiple eBay accounts?

[Kitsune Sniper]

Is it possible to create two eBay seller accounts using the same profile / information? I already have my main account (kitsunesniper) but I want to create a second one where I can sell other stuff. My main account has been targeted by VERO several times because I've tried to sell stuff that's "not allowed" by companies. Sometimes they don't pay attention to me, but other times they take down the item right away.

I don't want to lose my main account's PowerSeller status and I need to sell these items right away, so...

Can I get some help with this? Thanks. :)

Edit: And before you ask, it's old educational software. :P

I THINK that as long as you're using a different e-mail and associated CC#, you'll be fine.

According to this page, you can as long as you use a different user ID and e-mail address.

Man I missed Bing Cashback. That shit rocked hard.

Here is a question somewhat in topic: if one account is banned, or NARU'd, for whatever reason, will all other accounts from the same person get banned as well?

"Please note that in some cases where a member has two accounts and one becomes suspended, their second account may also be subject to restriction."

Anyway, thanks.

Edit: Hah, apparently I already had another account. Okay then... *lists stuff*

Crap. :(

Ok, then what if one account is to sell and another is to buy...and the selling account gets blocked from selling...can I use the selling account to buy? Will the buying account be affected?

[Kitsune Sniper]

I dunno.

Apparently I can't verify my alternate account because I don't have a US phone number. Well la di freakin' da. >_<

Yeah, once you're banned, you're banned from EVERYTHING.

I lost my original "ryborg" account years and years ago, because the Dave Matthews Band reported that I was selling bootleg t-shirts, when I was not. They were one of those bands/companies that was famous for reporting sellers for false reasons simply because it was hurting their bottom line during ebay's early years. Fuckers. Not that I needed another reason to hate those no-talent ass-clowns.

Because of that, I lost all access to about 6-7 other accounts in the 2-3 following years. Eventually I just set up a new account with a brand new name, phone number, etc. and I've been good ever since, spawning all new accounts from that one.

You know of any pay phones on the US side you can use? That's what a friend of mine did who didn't want ebay or any buyers to have access to his number.

Oh yeah, they DO suck ass.

Yeah, I know what you mean. When ryborg was suspended back in 2003, it was my sole means of survival too. I had about ~100 auctions up too, back when that wass the only style of listing available and it took forever to list. I lost a ton of money and even more time thanks to those idiots.

Back when eBay didn't block bidder names, I would constantly make accounts like rampantshillbiddingafoot and thesellerisatotalmoron and shill like a mofo.
