I have a great E-bay name from long ago-I'd love to sell it. Any real world advise?

I have read that the T & A only "allows" such a transfer if pre-authorized by them and that never happens.

I also assume you can do this in private-but then how to generate the best payment for my commodity.


I used to sell toy cars-sigh-those days seem like another lifetime now. I specialized in "Johnny Lightning" white lightning premium vehicles. Still a small market for them & I have some of the rarest still.

My user name is CARZILLA.

I'm sure some auto seller would give a high price for such a name.

It would be a huge blessing as we have major financial woes at the present time & I am listing some items on E-bay to help get by. It kinda dawned on me-duh-this name may be valuable & according to what I can find-it is!.

But how do I go about this???

Thanks...

I really just want to transfer the name. There is no business as such but I did sell a lot of toy cars way back when. No recent transactions to speak of.

But whatever it would take I would be happy to follow the rules if it can be done. Or not if that is what it takes.

I have a great user name on ebay that I got about 14 years ago. I sell dog beds and it is "imadognut". I have never thought about "selling" the name and even if I didn't use it again, so what? Seems kinda a weird idea to me.
I can see web sites with great names that would attract customers, but ebay?
