Default SO ANNOYED With BF's MOM!!

She knows my eBay ID and I found out she checks it REGULARLY to see what I'm buying and selling!! She also regularly checks my bf's account and can tell him how many bids he has, what's sold, etc. better than he can.

I AM SOOO ANNOYED because I DO NOT WANT her seeing what I"m selling! Some of the things i want to put up are gifts that she gave me that I can no longer use or that I already have! I'm also cleaning out stuff like fetish pants, leather hoochie pants, etc, from my heydays that I"m soo embarrassed to have her see. It is absolutely none of her business what I'm selling or buying, so I don't know why she has to check rebularly.

WTF?? Do you guys find this equally annoying? I tried changing my user ID, but it was pointless because it still shows my old ID linked to my new ID, and she will be able to figure it out.

Any advice?

I wanted to create another account, but that would mean I'd have to build my feedback up again.

aaaargh I would be raging, what a nosy, cheeky person. I would start a completely new ID, feedback doesnt really count any more with all the ridiculous new rules

My bf was on the phone with her this evening, and she asked him what I was up to. (We live together) and he said I was doing eBay stuff. She said that she saw I put some stuff for auction recently, and also told him she checked his account and felt bad because he wasn't getting bids on his items.

I should start putting up sex toys and penis enlargers. Maybe that'll teach her not to look.

I cannot begin to tell you how irritated I am right now.

Wow, your bf's mother have some nerves. The only advice I can give you is to get a new account with eBay.

What you can do is change the name of your ID and not use it for 30 days. Once the 30 days are up she won't be able to find you under the old ID anymore.....providing she doesn't make a note of the new name of course!!

Tell her she's free to bid on something if she likes :)

Otherwise as you would with any item you don't care for, don't look for it!

Can you change the account so you have one buyer acct and one seller account? And then build up FB on the new one and eventually drop the old account??? That is too annoying. There must be some smart way to get around her snoopiness!
