Regarding IP Address Change

I am new to ebay. But I have heard about ebay from my friend. I have many items to sell on ebay. But I have some questions about ebay. I am doing sales from my mobile phone. But I have heard that changing the IP address can be a problem for the account. Those who know about it help me.

Regarding IP Address Change

I block my location and web data, so it can be a problem, yes. Ebay makes me verify account through email etc, but privacy and peace if mind are important for me. As long as you can access the email or phone connected to your account, it shouldn't be a problem if Ebay makes you confirm info for sign in, as you will have what you need to do so

You should be worried about learning how to sell and ship.

Ask this to the person that you heard about it from.

You're worried about something that hasn't happened yet and may or may not be a problem in the future?

I sign in from my phone all over the place, and desktops in several locations. Never had a problem.

Your IP address changes all the time.  It's not a problem.

Use your phone and your home computer with their IP's without worries. No future problems.

 

If you share WIFI with other eBay users, eBay my link your IP's and you could have trouble if someone on the same network gets blocked by eBay. Using proxy servers can also cause eBay to think your account is being hacked. eBay uses its own logic to detect hacks that sometimes comes to the wrong conclusions. Public WIFI should not be used without a proxy server, even though eBay may think it detects hacks. My phone services is good enough that I never use eBay with Public WIFI.
