Want-it-Now

Sometimes, it is useful to set up two eBay accounts – for example,
you may wish to sell two different types of merchandise and therefore want to
have a user ID (nickname) that reflects your different product lines.
But what happens if you want to drop one of those product lines
and concentrate on the other – you don’t want to loose the valuable feedback
and reputation that you have built up by closing one of the accounts.
eBay allows you to merge two accounts into one and
to retain both sets of feedback. Here’s how it works……
- Account
you want to keep with ID [keepme], with
feedback of 200 and email address 1stemail@xyz.net
- Account
you do not want to keep with ID [looseme], with
feedback of 100 and email address 2ndemail@xyz.net
Becomes the merged account…..
- Account
you want to keep with ID [keepme], with
feedback of 300 and email address 2ndemail@xyz.net
However, there are some requirements that have to be met before
eBay will permit the accounts to be merged:-
- You have
to prove that you own both accounts and this is usually demonstrated by
the fact that the contact information is the same on both accounts.
- The
account you do not want to keep must be inactive for a minimum of 60
days before the merge although you can, of course, continue using the
account you want to keep.
- The must
be no outstanding balance on the account you do not want to keep – you must
have paid all eBay fees.
- All
subscriptions for additional services such as Selling Manager Pro should
be cancelled on the account you do not want to keep.
Once two accounts have been merged, you are not allowed to repeat
the process by merging a third account.
