How to create another ebay account?

Hi!
I've decided to create another ebay account, so I have one for selling and one for buying. But how do I go about creating one? Do I just do it as normal, like sign up, or do I have to do it through my current user name? I just don't want to sign up from scratch and then get into trouble for having differnt accounts or anything.
Thanks!

Online email provided by google. Nice to use, excellent spam facilities.
Like hotmail, but not rubbish like hotmail

Nah, I got two accounts, one for posting and one for selling/buying."Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, But beautiful old people are works of art."

Yes you will need different bank details or card details for both if you are using a web based email address.
