Could ebay track my IP address in order to tie my two accounts together, even if the name/address/c.c. info were all different?

Do they allow (or even flag) proxies or tor exit nodes?

I can't say for a fact one way or another but I'd be very surprised if they marked either.  Proxies are much harder to detect.  A VPN with a US IP address bought with bitcoin is the best option.

You need to connect to the VPN anonymously. Tor to VPN is good, just VPN not so much.
