Nope, i don't think they asked -- when i signed up to ebay, i gave up when they asked for an over 18 birthday, by and large, i like to do things legitimately. If it all goes arse over tit (eg some bugger pinches your details) and you haven't ligitimately signed up, you may well recieve less help, if any at all.
