Your User ID is the unique nickname you choose for signing in when you first register at eBay. You can change your User ID (once in a 30-day period) by going to the Change User ID page.

When you change your User ID:

• The change will appear immediately, even in listings you're participating in.

• eBay will automatically attach your member and other important account information, including your Feedback Score, to your new User ID.

• The "Changed ID" icon will also appear next to your User ID for 30 days.

• Your old User ID can't be used by anyone else at eBay for 30 days.

Note: You can only change your User ID once in a 30-day period. This is to prevent confusion for other members. Keep in mind that your User ID is a valuable asset, like your Feedback Profile. Trading partners will come to recognize you by your User ID, so it's a good idea to choose one you'll want to use long term.

If you'd like, you can also change your password.

Tip: If you forget your User ID, you can have it sent to your registered email address.
