He has the same email address for the buying account and the selling account? That's impossible

That's what I meant. When a person opens two ebay accounts, they need to provide TWO different email addresses. I'm sure I read that post from steve or someone else posting before.

Also, there are problems associated with changing email addresses and receiving payments after that change of email address with ebay.

=====
Anyone, reg the phone, any phone that has been sold, would it be possible to block/blacklist that phone based on the IMEI it has-that is if u have written it down before selling? The reason why asking is that when I had a contract with T-Mobile, it was blocked/blacklisted somewhere between my contract (which did not end) for a few days, I think months 9-10 sometime. Don't know what site that blocks this, but if one of the phones is what the seller is selling, i.e. same IMEI it might help in that the phone itself does not work! :cool:

Because each eBay account needs a new email address.

You can't open an account with [EMAIL="joebloggs@xmas.com"]joebloggs@xmas.com[/EMAIL] and then open a different account with that same email address.


Taken from the eBay help pages :

eBay requires a unique email address for every eBay member. If you do not believe you ever registered on eBay, consult anyone who might share the email address you are using, or use a different email address.

What ways around it are there?

You'd have to explain for anyone to believe that.
