New one to me.

I recently had a single person with 3 ebay user ID's make 3 purchases using each ID. All shipping to same address. Is this common? Is this allowed? Buyer is also making first purchases. Seems legit. lol

Is the buyer new with zero feedback, and looks like they just opened an account? If yes, it could be a buyer buying as a guest.

@spoxbrain 

Did you receive notifications on eBay or elsewhere? This a new one on me.  Perhaps they only had so much money to spend on each account.  You may want to google the address just to be sure.

Agree. Guest accounts can only make one purchase each - is that right?

I don't think it's odd..........there are many places that I won't register in for fear of spam........

Cold be guest accounts?

Could be different family members?

Could be like me, one order at a time?

Have a great day.

I think so unless they forgot what password they used.

I would wait until last possible day you are suppose to mail these items out.

Just a thought. eBay might come back with an email saying buyer(s) is no longer registered on eBay.

Unfortunately, eBay is a little slow sometimes in getting the email out and seller has already mailed the items.

When buyer is no longer registered on eBay...eBay will tell seller not to mail out item if they haven't done it yet.

Buyer might be trying to see if ID's will work for multiple purchases on this one day from multiple sellers.

I have experienced this with auctions I did in the past...but not buy it now items. Buyer could be setting up accounts for bidding on auctions where this one buyer bids and then retracts bids to get the lowest bid on an auction. So it could be where this buyer will be OK for your purchases but not for other sellers who do auctions. Just a thought.

It probably is someone buying as a guest. Each time they buy something eBay gives them a new ID. 
If you ship all the items together the tracking number will show up on one transaction only. You won’t be able to add the tracking number to the other two transactions.

Guest buyer was my first thought too.

 

Google the address. Sometimes that is reassuring.

At least on ebay they don't make you register just to LOOK at the site.
