...go back to zero - 0 - nada - zilch.
When I was on eBay several years ago, if you changed your username your feedback started all over again. I am not starting a new account, just want to change username on established account.
Now that I am getting busy back into eBay, I would like to change my username to fit what I am selling but I don't want to lose my 600+ feedback so far.
My eBay username is also my first name short and my last name. Much too personal, would like to be more annonymous. I can handle the new name icon by my name for the 30 days, just worried about the feedback.
Any information welcome!
Thanks!

Rosy,
Don't worry. Changing your username will not affect your feedback. It will automatically be attached to your new username. I changed mine before the first of the year because it was my email address and Ebay required that it be changed. In fact the same thing happened to thousands of ebayers. It was nothing unusual to see users with a newbie icon alongside a feedback score of thousands.
