I need to change my email address on my eBay username. Tried, my email address is taken!! Looked up the user and this person is no longer registered. What can I do?? Would like a phone number to call, oh I don't know, someone!
I know you folks out there have more knowledge than you know to do with (have read these posts often!) Please share some of it.
Thanks in advance....if you want you can by all means email [email protected]

I have no idea what to do, except to add a 1 or 2 or any number after your chosen name, to separate it from the original..
But using an old, already-used-once name can make things a little confusing: My email starts with yasou2u...Sometime last year, I received a lovely E-Mail from a stranger: "Welcome back, yasou...Where HAVE YOU BEEN!...
I have had that name for over 2 years..
Had to disappoint this nice person

I could be wrong but I think if you write to safeharbor they may be able to help you. That or start a thread on the ebay discussion and help boards>community help>registration board. If you have the email address, it should be a simple matter to prove.

I generally recommend that people do not use an email address for a user id unless you enjoy spam and time-wasting questons. When I changed ISPs, I went with shades for thirty days and I believe that does affect sales. I use a link in my auctions for questions.
