I have an Ebay account and have sold for a few years now.
My wife has decided to have a bit of a clear out from her wardrobe(s) .. about time I say !!
is it possible for her to have a separate account, despite the fact that we shall each be using the same computer ?
The reason I ask, is that a friend of mine shares a flat with his girlfriend, each with separate accounts and neither of them has ever received the free extera 100 listing from Ebay. they both only get 20 feree per month.
Is there any connection ?

It should be fine, but do be aware that if eBay ban one account they'll likely ban the other. Other than that, it shouldn't make any difference.0

I have three accounts. Two personal and a business one. Plenty of people use one account for buying and one for selling. The only thing you need to remember is that Ebay will link the accounts, even though it is two different people. If your wife gets too many bad marks or low ratings and gets restricted, your account will too.
I have been offered 100 free listings plenty of times on my buying account. i guess it is as I do not use it for selling and they are trying to encourage me to sell on it.0 -
Yes. My wife and I both have an account, I don't think it's a problem unless you try and bid on each other's items (shill bidding) or something like that.0

You can have as many accounts as you want and up to 8 e mail addresses can be linked to the same paypal account.
