I've been thinking about selling some digital items on ebay. But i got a few questions about i. First its about the account. I don't live in the US so i guess i need to buy a US account. Second i don't want my paypal linked to a fake ebay so should i also buy a fake paypal account?

didn't ebay disallowed selling digital items? CMIIW
I would still like to know how i go about the account creation. Is it enough just to use a US proxy? Or do i need to buy already made accounts? Lets say i just made them using a proxy, and paid for some VCC to get them verified would they last long?
Using a proxy is a bad idea, eBay can ususally see straight through that.
In the UK you are required to link your eBay to a verified Paypal account in order to sell - not sure where you're located.
The days of creating multiple eBay accounts on the fly are long gone.

...normally you don't have to have an US-Account to sell in US (why do you think so?) Just use your foreign Account and log directly into ebay com, and start your listing. And for payPal the same, the US buyers pay into your foreign PP-Account. Whatever (
) you want to sell there, isn't it much more comfy and "save" from far away?When your sales site and account look trustworthy, they buy from Angola, if it'S something they WANT, a lot of chinese sellers do that, right?
Or did I misinterpret your question?

I have a US egay account and I've sold on the UK egay before. I found a UK item, then clicked "sell one like this" and you are routed through the UK (or whatever country's site...yesterday I almost created a listing in AU by accident) site to make your listing.

That would fix the stuff with ebay. Then I just have to make a new pp account and get it verified.
