I am not going to get into the 'private' vs 'business' account politics that business sellers gripe about on these forums.   As  long as it is legal by both the government and eBay to trade without registering a company then that is ok by me.

No one forced most business sellers to be so - they chose to be - and I respect that choice.  Pity they can't respect hobbyist sellers such as myself in choosing private accounts.  Should ever get the time and energy to clock up thousands of sales a month I would no doubt then reconsider that decision, especially as it would at that point most likely no longer be a hobby.   Some weeks I made no sales at all.

eBay selling is, for me, a hobby along side my fulltime job and as long eBay are happy and my taxes are paid to HMRC then I couldn't care less about some business seller moaning about private sellers.

As for the statement 'buyers buying from you don't have the right to know your business details' - what does that even mean? eBay will happily give my personal address and contact details to any one who purchases something from me.  It is even printed on all my Royal Mail postage labels as the senders address.

This is far more transparent than a lot of eBay business resellers who hide behind PO Boxes.

Do business sellers complain at car boot sales for sellers who paid for stock as I am sure those regular car boot sellers don't have that much 'personal' stuff to sell off?

That is all I will say on this topic so the business sellers can't hijack another thread with this.  Such business sellers do come over as running scared of private sellers.  Which is stupid as eBay was originally founded as a platform for online hobbyists,  garage sales and car boot sales.
