Default Seperate ebay shop and personal ebay?

I want to seperate my ebay shop and my personal ebay account is that possible?

Also if that's not possible is there anyway I can merge them together and put my feedback from my personal into my ebay shop?

It's just because on my personal one I'm selling things that are nothing to do with the shop. Someone help me please

You can have as many ebay accounts as you want.

I'm not entirely sure that's correct. You are allowed multiple accounts, but as many as you like? I'm not sure they would support that.

Certainly if you wanted one for personal and one for business that shouldn't be a problem at all. I'm personally not concerned about having different accounts, unless you do a large amount of personal shopping the odd purchase in the business account isn't going to do any harm and saves the hassle of setting up a new one.

To answer your question about merging an account, yes that is possible. Here is some information from eBay: http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/account...-accounts.html

I would always advice to keep them seperate, makes accounting far easier for a start

As long as 1 account hasn't been used in (off the top of my head) 3 - 6 months then you can merge the smaller account into the bigger one for the feedback.

Personnally I have a seperate buying account.

The bonus of this is, if I ever want to change the name or use it for business then I will have a ready made account with plenty of feedback.
