Account Change

[flaakcollectibles]

Hello all. Hoping this is the appropriate place to post this! Short question. Would it ever be possible to have a brand new account with my feedback? I would love to start over because a lot of my "co-workers" know my ebay. Its quite a drag they know everything I post. But I dont want to give up my 2000+ hard earned feedback in the last few years. I dont think its possible to do on my own or using any ebay tools..but I figured if I asked ebay they might be able to do this? Another alternate would be blocking people from following me period and making things not be searchable by location unless local pickup. Its quite annoying that all your items technically show how close they are to the buyer. Perhaps I have ability to limit this? Let me know!

Thanks.

You CAN change your ebay id name. 

You CANNOT move your feedback to another account

You CANNOT stop people from 'following' 

You CANNOT stop people from seeing your items

Local Pickup or anything of the like does not change anything. 

You CAN 'block' people from 'buying'- but you would have to know their ebay ID name to put it on the blocked list.

Know that anyone can have more than one account, so if you block ID 1234 doesn't mean that 5678 is blocked and therefore they can buy.

This is not the answer to your question, but why is it a problem that co-workers know that you sell on eBay?

Because they see everything good I post and give me crap about it and try to make me get less because of it. We all pretty much hang at a sourcing place so if they know what I have its just ammo. When you know eachother for years doing this you become very comfortable. Now that the market is dry they are going after things they never used to buy and learning through me...ever single time i find something.

I would prefer I can change my ebay id and I cannot move your feedback to another account, stop people from following or seeing your items. All that can be said in one sentence but without capital letters like im 5. No offense jus sayin. Appreciate it though, it does help me.

Sorry no. If you start a new account, you start fresh, they will not move your feedback to a new account. Change your password and eBay name, that can be done. As far as posting here, many do have a different account just for here, you can have more than one account.  More than likely you are not the only seller on eBay in your location, for shipping, eBay would need to know your ship from zip.

Yeah but I mean its very easy to find people you know. Say you see someone buying something at the flea market. Unique item. Search ebay local ...oh a new one listed only 5 miles away...hmm. must be him. Ive found people I dont even know watching them buy one item only. How do I know its them? Its a one of a kind item and someone 5 miles away just happen to post it 2 days later. I dont think it should be this easy. Obviously with OAK items  its inevitable. But I can watch one of my "coworkers" buy a simple thing and find their ebay np.
