Is this like voting in Best of Stores, where the user ID doesn't even have to be your own?

eBay is using a 3rd party (Strobe Promotions) to run the sweepstakes.  The 3rd party could verify that a user ID exists but I don't think eBay could legally give a 3rd party the real name/address associated with an eBay ID.  You can probably use someone else's ID if you enter by mail.  Smile  If you enter online these rules apply when you use someone else's ID:

Quote: If a dispute results as to the identity of an online entrant, it will be determined that the online entry was submitted by the authorized account holder of the eBay User ID from which the entry is made. For these purposes, the authorized account holder is the natural person assigned to the eBay User ID by eBay Inc.
